Comments:
I operated sporadically during the contest. Typically I only ran 10 watts into a
modest (approx 22 foot) roof mounted vertical fed via an auto tuner. In general
I found it easier to "run" than operate in "search and
pounce" mode.
At times I disabled the auto sequence function in WSJT-X. Quickly completing
qso's without auto sequence enabled was a challenge at times, but at times I
felt that disabling the auto sequence function was the best choice for me when
there were weak signals that didn't decode properly after the first
transmission and or I had multiple callers on different audio frequencies.
This was not a major issue and in some ways it was nice to have to interact more
with the equipment in my station to complete contacts at times.
All in all a lot of fun. Thanks to the contest organizers, the other operators
on the air and of course the WSJT-X development team.
