Comments:
Within the first ten minutes my K3S quit working. Replaced it with my excellent
FT-2000D with Yaesu mu-filters for 160M, 80M, 40M. Stunning performance.
The 10M stack really played and enjoyed runs from S and Central America, and
Ø,6 and 7-land.
Innumerable Ops waited until just hours before the contest to attempt to set up
their RTTY gear. About 1/5 of RTTY ops have never learned to tell when they are
off frequency or, just don't care. Many, many, others never got past
transmitting a Mark or Space tone for 30 seconds, repeatedly.
All kinds of goofy, superfluous stuff was sent and most people sent everything
three times (!) even though it was not needed.
Hats off to K3MM, W3LL, K3AJ and others who cut the c*ap and showed a lot of
class!
