Comments:
As always, special thanks to Tom/NW6P for use of his awesome station, which is
playing very well these days!
This was my very first RTTY operation at all, and for that matter, my first
foray into SO2R or 2BSIQ. During Field Day, Bill (W9KKN) "twisted my
arm" (yeah right...) and asked me if I was possibly interested in trying a
RTTY contest., and of course, I gladly accepted. I was already familiar with the
great NW6P station as I spent Field Day there, so I was very intrigued to
finally try a mode that was sort of "exotic and mysterious" to me.
As most of you already know, Bill is a phenomenal elmer and he took time and
patience to guide me through an extremely efficient RTTY SO2R setup that could
create an interesting score for the club. I was very intrigued by how
"easy" the setup was and I had a great time!
I had Roberto (K6KM) on "my tails" for quite a while and eventually he
GOT ME!!! Oh well, the gauntlet is thrown for the next RTTY contest hi hi hi.
I had a minor radio snafu that took me "offline" for about 20 minutes,
but it was eventually sorted out by my trusty elmer Bill.
The really hard part was figuring out the best time to take breaks. Could it
have been better? Maybe. But I am more than proud of the final results; don't
forget that I am an absolute rookie. Here is a rookie that is now hooked for
good.
73 and thanks again one more time to Bill and Tom and all the NCCC butt kicking
and see you in the next contest...
And now, for some cabstats:
