K7XCSO HP 80MNot up to an All Band effort so opted to stay on 80M High Power only which worked out well. I didnt miss the Internet at all. Friday Night was very noisy with thunderstorm crashes at SNot up to an All Band effort so opted to stay on 80M High Power only which worked out well. I didn't miss the Internet at all. Friday Night was very noisy with thunderstorm crashes at Sunset but 4 hrs later the band was in great shape. Kudo's To The Creator Of The Timewave ANC-4 Noise Cancelling System. If not for your device I would have not heard a thing most of the weekend. Stayed up all night running rate as best I could. Thank You to the 40+ JA stations that called in! Those 6 point Qs are amazing!. Had to remind myself it was 80M as I could work almost anyone I heard. 2hrs before Sunset Saturday Night & again the Static Crashes were horrific but calmed down some over time. Managed to keep my big fat old man's butt in the chair till 3AM before my body said Enough!!. Not bad for a HP I5 SFF Biz PC, Flex 3000, Timewave ANC-4, AL-80B at 800W, into a 80M/40M Inverted V up 38'. See you all in a few weeks from Home (DM09jh) for the June VHF Contest! KB!

K9BOChecklogThe 45 wpm crowd should slow down At 30 wpm they would have fewer fills I'll bet their QSO rate would go up not down at the slower rate. Just an observation

KQ2MSO HP ALLA struggle for most of the weekend butcndx were occasionally terrific to JA, BY and Asiatic Russia. No 80 on Friday night and after only 1 1/2 hours of sleep I spent 3 hours off offtime on Saturday afternoon fixing the 80 M 4-square so that I could use it that night. As a result I Suffered microsleeps almost the entire rest of which caused me to lose many qso's. Tnx for the q's and mults! 73 Bob KQ2M
