2008 ARRL RTTY Roundup

01/07/2008 | N5ZM RTTY Roundup N5ZM M/S LP

Our score is off from last year but we did better with our QSO total. We had a
few nice surprises during our CQ runs with calls from TA1DX, TR8CA, V73RY,
CN8IG, EA8OM and SV9CVY that stand out among the many others.

We had a slow start on 15M. As you can see by the QSO count this low power
station was intimidated by the crowd on 20M. We had a difficult time with S&P
on 20 with so many HP stations it was hard to be heard and to copy stations.
Our DX multipliers were down by 14 from last year mostly due to our poor
performance on 20M. But the 40M country count was also down.

We held our own on 40M mostly due to the Force12 MAG240N equalizer. Hi Hi. The
conditions here were good on 80M as the band was very quiet.

Thanks for all the Q's and especially thanks to those who hung in there
answering all our requests for repeats.

Earl (N5ZM) and Glenn (N5RN) -- N5ZM
