Comments:
Altho I ran the BARTG RTTY contest along side the Russian DX contest and LA/VA
state QSO parties that also ran this weekend, BARTG was my main focus.
I ran remotely as WQ6X from Station #1 @ NX6T.
Equipment-wise was the usual Elecraft K3 into an ACOM 2000a amplifier dialed
back to about 550 watts feeding into a C-31XR yagi @ 13mh for 20-meters and
2-elements on 40.
With a LoT of effort, 10-meters delivered only KH6CJJ.
15 meters finally gave up some QSOs on Sunday afternoon.
In the end, it was 20 and 40 meters that made the difference.
There were a number of brief EU openings into Fallbrook;
especially Sat. evening.
40 meters offered up a lot of QSO surprises this weekend such as ZS6 @ 01:15z
near the contest end - incredible for a left coast operation.
It was fun running remote having callers worldwide checking in
who had no idea I was running remote.
