Comments:
I struggled a bit on 20 at first. I heard a station call QRL which is the usual
prelude to QRM, and that was the case - after a few minutes of almost no calls I
moved to another clear frequency and the same thing happened. At least that time
there I could move 200 Hz and get away from it. RBN and the N1MM bandmap are two
useful tools for being more polite as well as more effective :-) if you're going
to be running. I resisted the temptation to fire up the linear.
Went to 40 at about :40 to find some multipliers as 20 was slowing down. First 4
calls were all PA, but after that I had some variety. Worked a few England on 20
which were easy to discern when on a reasonably clear channel.
Thanks for the calls everyone. Sorry no Sunday night test but I will probably
dabble in the sweepstakes to make up for it.
