Last night was my first Sprint in 7 or 8 years, and the rust was
showing. Fortunately, N1MM+ was a lot smarter than the op, so I didn't
have to relearn all the tricks with the format of transmissions because
my stored messages still worked well.
Goal was to have at least one QSO/minute. After about 2 hours, that
became less and less plausible. I went earlier than normal (in past
years with much better antennas) to 40 and then 80, but thought the
turnout was disappointing throughout. I finally quit before 0300Z.
Did anyone else feel that activity was down?
