I had just recently upgraded from general and this was my first QSO party.
I loved it and there seemed to be quite a bit of activity. Worked a
couple of rover stations. Most of my contacts were Virginia as they were
havinging their QSO party as well.
People were polite and patient with my firs time participating in
something like this.
Look forward to doing it again!

** I agree conditions weren't very good. Activity on 80m wasn't near as good
** as last year. Still, it was a lot of fun and my schedule permitted me to
** operate more than I originally planned.
**
** Among other things, I had a minor foot surgery on Thursday, so what better
** way to rest a foot than sitting in front of a Yaesu!

** John and Doug et al:
**
** From a mobile perspective it was much fun. At first, with the Russian
** contest on I thought we would get
** buried but by 9:30 or so 20 seemed to make room for us. 20 and 40 were
** both quite good. This year I
** worked Europe from almost all 22 counties we covered so I believe 20 was
** in
** fair shape.
**
** Activity was up a bit I believe John - it may well be because of the Year
** of the State QSO Party. On the
** other hand I'd like to think Oklahoma's 77 counties are fun to work! I
** know of several out of staters that
** came within 1 or 2 of making a sweep and it looks like N6MU did do another
** sweep this year. I understand
** John, N6MU had 71 worked by Saturday evening! Great job with a vertical
** and low power in California.
