12/21/2003 | N0PB I hadn't had the chance to look here until recently.. Noticed not many comments, so here is mine.
I had almost forgotten the contest.. Wasn't real fired up since I never got the time to do more antenna work on the new tower.. All I had up at was a inverted-vee at 97 ft level. No receive antennas at all out yet. I decided to at least play around a bit beacause it had been quite a long time since I had been very active on the band.
I had lots of fun and got to work several people I hadn't worked in a long time.. Almost had WAS the first several hours of operating.. Boy, my CW was terrible.. Where were the Alaska stations hiding? Only state I missed.. Great fun !!
Maybe can be better prepared next time.
