[ADXA] ADXAthon is OVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Dennis Schaefer]

I think I got 52 - it was a pretty casual effort.   I only worked about an
hour last night and found the bands pretty flat when I got on this morning.
  I resorted to FT8 since there wasn’t much on the higher bands on other
modes.   CW was there - the bands  were covered with SKN participants and I
had a good straight key ragchew with 9J2BO, who I remember from the 70’s.
I keep a straight key hooked up all the time and this time the Bencher was
in the line.  That was on 10M and he was about the only one I could hear at
the time.

I hit the other end of the speed range because there was a CW Ops CWT going
on.  Those are the guys who run 40+ WPM and send the crazy cut numbers.  I
had to look up my CW Ops membership number and worked an HB9 who was in the
test.

I even got one I needed from a POTA activation.  I spent a lot of time
looking for new ones on CW and SSB, but in the end, FT8 activity was
predominant.  I enjoyed hearing all the SKN stations, though.

It was a good activity and I had fun in the limited time I had to
participate.

73,
