A few diddles and its all over. Great fun at a great station. If UBNs are
kind, we should have a new MS North American record.

10M: not much over-the-pole propagation. We did work a few JAs, but a whole
lot of Europeans and North American stations.
15M: Good band. Open almost all day, both days. Had to spend time on 20/10M
with our one run transmitter, which just took away from how good 15 was.
20M: Opened to Europe much of the night. Some nice late afternoon and night
time runs.
40M: Workhorse low band. Good for European runs 9 hours each day, and USA for
another 6 hours. Did manage to work a few JAs here, but very few were even
spotted at a time when we could work them.
80M: Suffered from the higher bands being so good. Had to put in time here for
the mults, but rate rarely justified it.

Only saw a few RTTY Skimmer spots- most were still done the old fashioned way,
by ops. GetScores gave us an important goal and helped keep us in the seat- to
work more mults than the local MM station K1SFA. Its close, but the last
GetScores seems to show we edged them out by a few. Great fun!

Thanks to Krassy K1LZ for the use of his great station.

Comments:

_someone_ Had the genius idea to try something new, like recording audio and
screen capture at the same time. This superb decision led to :37 – :47 having
4 QSOs. Could have switched to paper, but was not prepared.

Oh, and the recording did not record a blip.

Always fun, the pressure made it OK…. Exciting!

(Note to self, try stuff during NSL off-season!)

Sorry for the QLFs

Was fun.Wanted to get on and work NR1X and his new K1. Was just above ESP on the 30 mile trip on 40m but we did it!

Rig here Elecraft k3 down to 2w with 40m Moxon @ 90′. Open wire fed ZEPP for the single 80m QSO with KA2KGP/3.

Updated! Just worked NR1X on 20m as well.
