I enjoy this contest even though it has a very long exchange. It tends to slow everyone down a bit and by Sunday even the big gun stations are hearing us little ones better! As usual I wanted to have a fairly decent score but the weekend was very busy. I did manage over the weekend to contact 150 contesters and recorded 60 sections--short of the 85 needed for a clean sweep but still respectable.
My butternut ground mounted vertical did a decent job being heard on 40-15m and I was glad that 10m was open a bit so My yagi at 25' was useable. I didn't hear much workable on 160 or 80m so all contacts were 40-10m.
My final score was 18,000 before log checking. It was a fun contest .
73--Tim
