Comments:
Thanks for the Q's. A really interesting contest from 4 times zones east!
I negotiated Saturday and Sunday until noon (ADT) for operating time, I see now
that was a strategic error. A good learning for best use of propagation.
On Sat, 20 to 15 to 10 and then back to 15, then 20 into the evening. 40 did not
yield what I thought and 80 was dismal. There was a lot of offshore lightening
from the approaching tropical depression Phillipe that effected both 40 and 80.
Nothing on 160 other than a quick QSO with Karel OK1CF! non CA QP.
I found my microphone for 18 USB Q's on 20 when the going got slow. I found a
lot of CW guys doing the same thing! Glad to add the NS province to a few logs,
some multi band. CU all next year!
K3s, Palstar LA-1K, 2 el SteppIR, 2 el 40m vertical array, SAL20.
