Comments:
Some frustration and some fun. Slow start on 20 and fumbled the first call as I
was trying to figure out if anything was wrong. Fortunately he gave it another
try a minute of so later. Squeezed between two close in stations who appeared a
couple of minutes in. I decided to stick it out to practice copying through the
QRM which worked out OK (the N1MM bandmap is a useful too to determine where
other stations are active even if you can't hear them).
Towards the end I ran the beam bidirectional and worked a lot of Europeans,
adding 7 countries to the multipliers which helped, although working them is a
bit slower especially if they are non-combatants.
Thanks for the calls. It's fun to be part of this.
