Comments:
Hello from suburban Northern Virginia! Good conditions for a great contest.
After a surprise USA win in Multi-Single HP from N4RV during CWWW SSB, it was
decided to take a swing at the CW leg. Jack N4RV and Carl K3RV (aka, the RVs)
were early "ins". Owing to major scheduling issues (thanks Winston
(aka Radio Dog)), pet boarding could not be arranged in time to allow NN3W to
trek up to W3LPL. So, NN3W opted to stay close to home where he could race home
to mind Radio Dog during off times (still, two accidents to clean up).
In the last few days, it was decided to give N4RV some extra ummpfh, and NN3W's
FTDX-5000 was sequestered to stand in as a multiplier radio (only one radio was
used during the SSB contest). This was a major booster to the score as over 450
of the multipliers that we worked were worked using the multiplier radio. Still
though, this was very much a classic operation (no in-band operating, etc.).
Not bad for a suburban QTH with two medium-height towers and a tribander on 20
meters.
Good conditions (minus some geomag disturbance), good operators, and good times.
See you next time!
