Comments:
This FD almost felt like a contest :):). I wasn't able to participate with the
Greer Amateur Radio Club K4SV at the Field Day site this year, but I was excited
to have the opportunity to contribute to the club as a "1D" station.
With that in mind, I set a goal for 500 Qs and actually made 524. It was fun to
receive credit for working other 1D stations too.
At 17:45 on Saturday, I turned on the rig and I thought that my antenna was
disconnected or was in trouble. The bands were almost lifeless. Sigs began to
show up at 1800z, but still not at the usual level. Around 6-7 pm, the bands
sounded normal again. Maybe the Sahara dust was messing with us. On Sunday, I
got on late, but I enjoyed the excellent 15m and 10m openings. My best hour was
57 Qs and 10 mins was 78.
I hope that we can play by these rules in the future. I'm sure that the non-D
stations were thrilled with the unusually high activity. Let's do it again next
year.
Go GARC!
