IB6BSO LP ALLSorry for my code: it’s the first real CW contest I entered, but it was fun!
IB9TSO LP 40MOn both days the band wasn't really interesting and challenging. Low power traffic was 90% in search and pounce, using both VFOs and cluster spots: not too much fun when done that long. The high percentage of QSOs with Europe (73.9%), compared to other contests using the same setup, demonstrates the bad conditions on the long skip. I still had a lot of fun, despite the effort in working almost only by searching
II9PSO HP 15MI operated for 27 hours only SB15 and anjoyed nice prop very much with signals coming from USA and JA same time all day long. Bad weather first day without electricity for three hours and a lot of QRN I was very tired because of hard work and loss of sleep before the contest and was completely alone at the II9P hilltop QTH and very scary because of many lightnings with sparks all around inside the station. I stopped operation sunday afternoon and drove back home for job reasons
