The same here...I ended up with about 400 Qs playing around. First SSB
I've done in forever. 100' doublet at 45' and 500 watts.
I ran assisted, and basically just went from spot to spot with the arrow
keys in N1MM. I rarely touched the big knob.
Occasionally I did tune by a good station that had not been spotted, so I
spotted those. I really would prefer people *don't* automatically spot
everything. It adds to the traffic, and displays a *lot* of busted spots -
typos or mis-copies, I don't know which...but there were a lot of them.
Anyway, it looks like my tower and antennas won't be up before ARRL-DX,
so...dang.
