Comments:
With the possibility of severe weather Saturday, I only fired up the radio for a
few hours here and there. I just swapped out dipoles, and the one I have up
now will not currently tune 40m. No time to fix that. Nothing heard on 10m.
15m activity was weak during the short amount of time I was operating, but
there was apparently more activity on 15m than last year considering I made a
few more Qs there.
Knowing I couldn't do anything on 40m or 10m, and given the weather, my heart
wasn't into spending time in the chair. Sunday was family day, and so I spent
the majority of that time with the family. Got called away later in the day
Sunday on an emergency IT call, so I wasn't around for the tail end either.
This is one helluva fun contest, and the EU folks sure have mastered the skill
of sending/receiving QTCs, regardless of speed, sig strength or QRN. My hats
off to them for a superb job. This is their contest, and if they are wanting
QTCs and willing to copy them, I'll gladly provide them. If I didn't like the
rules, I simply wouldn't operate.
Thanks to the sponsors and the EU stations for all the fun!
