Comments:
Ran out of time at 04:00 due to poor time management. I took two breaks but they
were less than 30 minutes each, so I didn't get credit for the time off. Amazing
how close I was to my 2017 results with about 33 fewer Q's and only 3 fewer
mults. I really had a goal of beating my 2017 score. If I had another hour to
operate I'm sure I would have. Lesson learned.
Made more Q's and mults on 15 than 2017. That's the only band I did better on
this year - go figure.
Still a great contest - a really long sprint with non-stop action. I was much
more band-agile this time around. I wasn't able to get runs going on 20 so I ran
up and down the band, then kept switching bands to check conditions. Didn't
really get good runs going until later on 80 and 160. Found I could hold a
frequency very well.
Off now until ARRL DX CW from FM (Martinique) as TO8T. Please look for me
there!
73, Tom
