Soapbox : Before the contest started discovered that the rotor no
longer turns CCW. Of course the antenna was pointed to Africa.
Thankfully the Yaesu rotors have 90 deg of overlap so turned the beam
around to 270 deg where it will remain until I work on it. Honey-do's
prevented anything looking like a serious effort, so had fun playing
fresh meat, even on Saturday. Had some decent runs on 20m and 40m
but never could get anything going on 80m. Spent WAAY too much time
Sunday afternoon chasing VY1EI on 10m. Still missed a bunch of fairly
easy sections - NE, WTX, DE, QC, SB..... Hopefully can clear the decks for SSB.
