I've worked a few on CW just to make a showing. I did 27 minutes and worked 53 stations on 20M CW. I quit for lunch when things slowed down. I hadn't contested any for a few months and it took awhile to get the logging program straightened out. I had ESM turned on and couldn't underdstand why the program seemed to have a mind of its own. Not too bad considering that a couple of months ago, I couldn't sit up to the rig and look at the computer screen at the same time. Things are improving and the doc cleared me to do physical therapy for my neck.
I came back and worked a few more on 20M but no pileup like at the beginning. 15 was no-go and also 40. Maybe 40 will pick up later in the afternoon. I listened a little on 20M SSB but Arkansas signals were in the noise. I think I'll stick with all CW, low power category. 100 would be OK, but I might go a little past that. Just getting on the air for anything but a quick DXpedition contact is a win.
