2011 ARRL 10 GHz and Up Contest

09/22/2011 | W1AUV

Another 10 GHz and Up contest behinds us. I had fun as I usually do. The first weekend was slower than the second as it seems like fewer people are going out or at least, going out both days. I almost double my first weekend score on the second weekend. Saturday on the second weekend was slower than Sunday. On Sunday I managed a contact with VE3FN, Ray, in FN26rf while I was on Mt. Equinox (FN33kd). About 360 km on SSB. Not my best distance but my best for this year. It made my day!

Everybody is great! Lots of help relaying information and a lot of hard work (sometimes) making the contacts. Bounce-shots and rain scatter as needed!

I look forward to next year. I plan to tighten a lot of loose screws on the dish and tripod as well as replace a couple of cables.

Thanks to everyone!
