It was a fun contest even although I did not make a serious effort
this year. A couple comments follow:
I was shocked at stations sending my call twice, and my 599
report twice, followed by a single xmission of their serial number.
Heck, I already know my call sign and rst 599 is given, it sure is
nice to receive the serial number more than once to check if you
copied it correctly.
I love my new K3 radio I built this summer. I runs circles around
my old TS-940 I used for 22 yrs. Only had to move freq twice to
avoid QRM this year. The K3 is sweet.
Only two stations were off frequency from my 400 hz filter far
enough that I had to use RIT to tune them in. WAY TO GO GUYS!
I think the hi-light of the contest for me was working Phil, GU0SUP
with solid signals and successfully exchanging 10 QTC's.
I sent a lot of QTC's such that at one time I had none left to send!
Thank you all for the Q's and a great contest.
