[GCARC] AB2E ARRL FD 1D HP

Darrell,
Will do. Didn't submit my log yet but will do, maybe tonite before bed.
I finished with just over 400 QSO's. Lost my 80 meter antenna so didn't score much there. the band sounded good so that was a definite missed opportunity. My linear is still at Ameritron so had to run 100 watts. Was still able to run at times. I didn't copy a lot of "A" numbers and did copy a lot of 1D'S so a lot of people opted to work from home.

Hi all,
If you operated 1D from home like I did, be sure to submit your score to ARRL to be counted for the club aggregate listing (special rule for 2020).

Wow, that was fun!
As usual, things did not go as planned! At 1:45 local time just 15 minutes
before the start, I was informed by my XYL that we had to finish a new bathroom
and paint the first floor of a house we are renovating since the new tenants
wanted to move in a week sooner. Off we went, and a grueling 8 hours later we
made it back home. Totally exhausted but managed to get on for 4 hours before
having to stop to sleep. Around 1130Z I got up and was able to put in a very
productive final 5.5 hours (9.5 hours total).
So much for hoping to operate for 24hours.
Nice to make a few Qs on all 6 HF bands, but 80m was the money band, and 20m
a close 2nd. I was hoping to break 1000 Qs but didn't quite make it.
Pleased that I came close averaging 100 Qs/hour for the duration and had a peak
rate of 240/hour.
