I do not think I did too bad for my real first effort at this. Managed about
12.5 hours, in between family and other more important items. Thanks to HC8N
for all 5 bands. Also to KH7X for 4 bands. 10 meter backscatter was
exceptional, best I have seen since the 70's. 15 meters showed its ugly side
with RF in the shack and computer, had to drop the power to 50 watts. 20
meters also showed some backscatter but mostly to SA. 40 meters was a bust
here, 80 was good, but missed the opening to JA-PAC. Hopefully by the next
contest some will learn to turn OFF the AFC and call on my QRG, guess there
is a reason for help files and email lists. Printed some really poor
signals, lots of spurs and badly over-driven. I sincerely hope my signal was
clean. Also wish to thank my YL (Edna) for letting me play radio and keeping
the homemade Sangria coming. 73
