Greetings everyone....
Great job in the PAQP 2009!! Lots of QSOs out there
with W3HA K3PP K3NG/qrp and KB3AGZ. Who and where is that
W3T guy? Never did hear K3T. Here goes the gory details
and I GOT MORE QSOS THAN K3NG!! But K3NG/qrp wins again.
Even beats K3PP!! Great Contest!!
Greetings...the antennas did not want to stay up and neither
did the trees. A Tuesday nite/Wednesday morning wind storm
brought down all the newly restored wire antennas including
an 80m loop like a domino effect. One tree fell on
another....Wound up repairing and getting up 3 dipoles at 25
to 35ft instead of 50 to 60ft. Pulling on one leg of the
40m loop brought it down as well on Saturday morning. 40m
did not perform well at all as Ray W3TDF predicted and 80m
became the bread and butter band.

Total Qsos 489

We were kept busy much of the time and worked many familiar
calls. I wound up breaking out the "golden paddles" which I
never could get properly adjusted with the built in keyer.
I do not claim to be a CW contester but gave it the old NAVY
heave ho. I do four major contests a year. I thank
everyone for being out there. It was great fun. Things are
bound to get better. I even heard K3NG /qrp once or
twice!!
