Comments:
K3CCR is the club station at the Collington continuing-care
retirement community at FM 18OW in MD, just east of DC. For the
2021 SS CW, I (N3UM) was the only CW op available; I did SOHP U.
My goal was to beat the 680 Qs and 112.9 K claim W3GB and I made
doing Multi-2 in 2020 SS CW. I did it, with 705 Qs and a claim
of 115.6 K. I ran for 74% of Qs in 16.5 hrs BIC, vs my 14.2 hrs
BIC in 2020. Great condx helped, ~same as last year.
>From 2104Z start I ran at 55/hr for 145 Qs and 48 mults on 20 M by
2343Z. I then ran at 52/hr for 157 Qs and 16 mults on 40 M by 0254Z.
I got 86 Qs and 9 mults running on 80 M, 55/hr 0254Z to 0431Z QRT
with 387 Qs. Had 73 mults; all W/VE in the W. but NV and UT.
Sun. AM was different. After 1310Z QRV I clicked spots for the first
time, to work always-CQ ops, and mults came slowly. By 14Z I got 32
Qs + PAC, WV, and NV on 40 M. From 14-1616Z I got 75 Qs + PE, UT,
and NL on 20 M, 22 in a run, then broke for lunch.
Back on 20 M 1838-21Z, I got AK + 62 Qs, 46 in a run. Got 42 Qs on
40 M 21-22Z, and broke for supper with 600 Qs and 81 mults.
Back at 0018Z I ran on 80 M at 47/hr for NNY + 68 Qs by 0146Z, then
30 more clicking spots for 705 Qs at 0230 QRT. Many loud class A
ops came on CQing in my last hour.
I never heard VI or saw it spotted. VY0ERC in NT was S5 to S7 ~18-19Z,
but he could only work very slowly under a huge and impatient pileup.
