Comments:
I had commitments on Saturday but had been hoping to get set up with the full
10-band station on Sunday. Hurricane Ike put a stop to that. I decided that I
wasn't going to totally miss out on it, though, and headed for the hills for
the last 3 hours of the contest as a QRP-Portable on 144 MHz only. In the
rain.
The weather this weekend was remarkably similar to the operation I did a few
years ago in this same contest with Bob N5RP on Bald Knob, IL. A hurricane
drenched us in that one, too.
It was also reminiscent of my very first VHF contest, when I went to a hill
with just 144 MHz. I did better this time though - I guess equipment
improvements and better op!
:-)
