WriteLog V11.28J with out-of-date support for this contest. Score reflect the
maximum bonus points of 450 added to the contact total.
Quiet conditions, however, still not "great" ... I had good 20M, fair
40M and marginal 80M. Not a peep on 15 or 10. Majority of the contacts were
made on 20 SSB, and 60% of the time I ran out of NC stations calling CQ and
found that running my own CQ's was productive.
I ran QRP in the SCQP 6 hours got 55 contacts, Low Power in NCQP the same
amount of time made 142 contacts ... more on 80/40 than possible with QRP -
only due to congestion and noise. This was a 3-fer weekend with another 252
contacts in the CQ 160 Phone contest in 7 hours. So a "20-Hour"
effort yielded 439 contacts - not a great overall rate, however, I did get a
good workout!
I think the concept of SC+NC weekend will work, however, it might take a year
or two to catch on. Both days saw some Jamming taking place on the QSO Party
effort, more Sunday on NC.
OK! On to the next one, see NC+SC next year!
