My first contest since returning to ham radio after a 26 year absence ...lots of fun. Working only the digital modes it was encouraging to see so many stations working PSK31 & RTTY. Transitioning from paper and pencil log and dupe sheets to computer assisted record keeping is a real improvement. Didn't pick up a pencil the entire contest!
The only down side, other than the fact that I couldn't stay up as long as I could in 1982, were the few VERY wide bandwidth, multiple harmonic, PSK31 transmitters.
