Soapbox:I missed this one last year do to work commitments, so was very
happy that work did not interfere this year :). Although I did not think
conditions were great, especially Eu over the pole from VE5 land, I managed
to cobble together improvements in mults and almost double the Q count from
my best previous effort. I attribute this to a little less running and a
little more S&P, paying attention to greyline propagation and when the rate
slowed, looked for mults by sweeping 2 or 3 bands quickly.
Thanks to all those, old and new, who dropped by and exchanged Qs. As
well, thanks to John, GW4SKA and the rest of the team at BARTG. This
contest just seems to get better and better!
Look forward to seeing you all in the next one.
