Ran my K2 at 5 Watts QRP again in this Sprint. Thanks to all who "dug" my
signal out.
Just before the Sprint I worked 15 Netherland stations on 10 Meters, so I
had great hope for some of our DX members participating. But I heard "nary
a peep" from England on 10 Meters.
I did get VE5BCS in SK to respond to my CQ on 10 Meters but that's the only
contact I had on 10 in the Sprint.
I ended up with 45 QSO's and 25 multipliers. I did work Peter, G3JFS on 15
Meters in the Sprint. He seemed to be enjoying himself.
I periodically went to 80 Meters and called CQ. Finally at 2055 UTC I
found Duren, KG4NYV calling CQ on 80 Meters. So he became my last QSO in
the Sprint. And he is located in SC which is pretty "rare" during most
other contests - Hi !
It's always great fun in this "low key" activity.
