Comments:
Thanks to all who answered my call.
NAQP RTTY in Feb is always tough here. From the midwest 10/15 prop is too long
in Feb, and mults are hard to get as a result; top two bands too slow to run.
Not this time! !o my complete surprise there was enough action to run 15. And
while Qs were found on 10, it was still too thin to run. Ended up running 20
and then alternating between run/s&p on 15 - and s&p 10.
By the time 10 shut down had managed a reasonable spread of mults on 10, and a
very nice result on 15. Ran 20/40 and then later 40/80 for the rest of the
contest. 80m was a bit noisy and with LP was tougher than 40 and required many
repeats.
Had a bit of trouble with the computer and logger though. Restart and quick
load an older N1MM update and after that, system performance was solid.
