Comments:
Most equipment worked well, except for a severed cable to one of the yagi's,
which seemed to have been cut by the lawnmower and his crew. Also lost the
capacitors in the 10m section of the ICE Bandpass filter. Second time this has
happened.
Conditions were not great, but was surprised to get a couple decent openings on
10m, unfortunately people don't seem to be checking 10, so I had to try moving
just normal QSO's to improve the tally on 10m.
Highlights were working 7X, ET, TF and SV9 for new RTTY countries, and working
Don, AA5AU, on 40m. It was my only LA contact, but more importantly it was a
great sign that Don is fighting back after the disaster of Hurricane Katrina.
It was nice to work VE1OP, HC8N, PJ7/K7ZUM, K1TTT and KA4RRU on all the bands.
Great contest and see you next year!!!
