This year I started out well and equalled the best score I've ever
amassed at the half way point. I pretty much stuck to my game plan
and the bands cooperated.
Now, Sunday... well it wasn't pretty. In fact, it was a struggle.
That has been drill for the last 3 years. Last year I tried to tough
it out in one spot. This year, I moved more, but not fast enough.
I was gunning for last year's Unlimited Champ K7BV, as he moved from
NV to CT. But, Dennis was just playing around this weekend. And
then, I almost missed NV - they were few and far between without K7BV!
No one should have had trouble with Vermont, though. There were so
many big scores here, it was like operating from STX!
Nothing broke down! With a station with 20-25 year old equipment (and
an even older op), that's wonderful! -- W1SJ
