Comments:
Thanks to all who worked on putting this Contest together and will be
working to
do the scoring and other administrative stuff. Also, thanks to the folks who
were kind enough to work me.
Band conditions were okay considering how they have been over the last several
weeks. Even work Europe (once) on 10 meters! Fortunately, 15 and 20 meters
were in good shape throughout the weekend.
Lots of activity on all the bands which is a good sign of the health of RTTY
contesting. Hope they all had as much fun as I did.
Tried a reduced SO2R operation. However, just got 75 percent of the SO2R stuff
installed. Knew it would not be a full SO2R operation and found out only could
do a couple of bands. This was my first try at SO2R operation - I've got a lot
to learn.
Hope to have the all the SO2R equipment installed (except for second amp.) for
the next contest. Also, the operator has to do a lot of practise using the two
radios.
73,
Mike, K4GMH
