Comments:
Since I helped compose the write-up for the 2021 Michigan QSO Party, I
figured I should operate most of at least one event so that I know
what I am writing about. During the first half of the test I was
butt-in-chair only about half the time since most of the action
appeared to be on 20 meters and I could not hear much on 20 out of
Michigan from Ohio. Later I took more than an hour to perform some
antenna repairs. Once 80 meters became productive, then I stayed at
the radio most of the time.
W8RU registered as a rover on the 'Enter Plans' page on miqp.org but I
never heard him. I hope he didn't have serious problems.
My very first CQ MI resulted in a call from WN4AFP who suggested I
sign /OH to show that I'm out-of-state. I've not noticed the /state
suffix during the Ohio QSO party, so I'm left wondering how that meme
became established so quickly. Nevertheless, I was frequently called
by non-Michigan stations when CQing.
I worked NA8V and K8MQP 5 times, and K8BB, K2CUB, and N8FYL 4 times
and 10 other stations 3 times, not counting the 1 dupe.
I worked 34 counties on CW and a different set of 34 counties on phone
for a total of 44 counties overall.
Equipment: Elecraft K3S and P3, Alpha 8410 on the first radio,
Elecraft K3 and P3 and ETO 91B on the second radio. Cushcraft X7 at
100 feet; full sized verticals on 40 and 80.
