OK, I have carped about contests here before. But this past weekend's SSB contest brought better results.
My goal was to make 100 ligit contacts. I actually passed 100 before I realized it.
I am really slow with making contacts since I am a single operator and running a paper log.
I was almost exclusively on 20 meters, but did get a few contacts on 15 and on 40.
The band was CROWDED but I got my 100 by lots of use of the tuning dial, RF gain knob, and the notch filter.
I got a suprisingly large amount of DX contacts.
And, whenever I heard someone trying to bring up a regularly scheduled net, I gave them 3Kz on each side.
Maybe there is hope for me yet (Hi Hi).
See you all at the next contest.
