Friday night and Saturday were almost identical comparing 2007 & 2008. The big
change was Sunday. In 2007, Sunday was very poor with difficult conditions.
This year, Sunday was much more productive than Saturday.
I missed the opportunity to move several easy multipliers to the other mode
expecting to work that mult on the second mode, which never happened.
Saturday's EU opening yielded 6 new mults.
Lots of new mults moved to SSB for a new one. There were very few, if any,
moves from SSB to CW.
Made many run frequency changes to keep the frequency clear for weak station
copy. Also, if there was any hint of another station on or near the frequency,
I moved. This seems to have helped.
Many callers disappeared during the exchanges. I hope we still worked later
on.
Thanks to all the callers, great competitors and to the ARRL for sponsoring
this event.
