Comments:
I spent several hours on Friday and Saturday morning trying to get my 2m
amp working with no luck. As it turned out, 2m was poor here, so no
great loss.
Line noise was in its typically bad state on Saturday, but much quieter
on Sunday. 6m was very hot here too. I thought my numbers were good,
but I was blown away be many of the other numbers posted so far.
Noticeably absent were the W6's that had been in regularly all week
prior to the contest. Texas stations that are typically so strong were
virtually non existent. Lots of Eu stations. Even heard ZC4LI and 5B4FL
but could not break through. Had I worked either of them it would have
been 5 continents in one contest!
This was one for the record books! See you all in September.
Equipment:
6M: 8EL at 60' FT1000MP. DEMI xverter, HB 4XC1500
2M 17EL M2 at 120' FT1000MP. DEMI xverter, RFConcepts brick

P.S. K4BAI, sorry I couldn't hear you! Did you try CW? It would have
been another mult for me.
