Good to put you in the log, Bill.
All of my RX antennas are down for the summer however I did manage to throw out a NE Beverage primarily for 40 meters. The past two years I have had too much noise toward EU on 40 so wanted to try to resolve that this year. It definitely helped.
QRN was difficult with the storms that moved through and were moving in.

I also enjoyed the contest, although I didn’t make a serious effort. My receive antennas are down until the thunderstorm season is over, so I couldn’t really hear on 80, 40, 160. 40 could have been really good, DX was as loud as locals, but too much static. Same for 160 and 80, where I did one quick pass on each, and worked what was there.
There was a short EU opening on 10m Saturday afternoon late, I only worked one 9A, and something else.
I primarily just hit the CQ button though, since contacts are more important that multipliers in that contest. I quit at 500.

I really did enjoy the contest and was good to see several ADXA folks in the fray. KM5G, K5FUV, K5UZ, and K5UR as well as K5GO and N5DX in more places than Santa Claus from ZF5T. I believe I worked ZF5T on every band 80 – 10, my brain’s a little fuzzy right now and I’ve closed the log.
My results have been posted on 3830scores.com along with my brief write up.
Band conditions were interesting. 10 meters was pretty much dead. 15 was the big game most of Saturday as 20 didn’t open up until late in the afternoon but then stayed open pretty much all night. I spent all night on 20 and darn near let the sun rise in EU before I moved to 40 but was able to zip over an nab some gud mults and Q’s out of EU. The SE Asia opening this morning on 40 and 20 was very gud.
WRTC results should be out tomorrow.
