Comments:

 

Where was PR during the first half of SS?  This was the only section that I
used

the cluster to find.  Then, I worked 2 more.  

 

As you can see by the results, 40 was the money band from my QTH.  I had
both

of my K3s setup in diversity mode with the long beverages on the RX input
and

the short beverages on the AUX input and that worked well. Kept the noise
level

down while allowing me to listen in two directions. Stations were actually

separated between left and right ears which helped with pileup management. 

Which, on Saturday night, there were many of.

 

With Sunday came the distractions, so as usual I could not keep myself
focused

for the 24 hours allowed.  Hope this contribution helps the overall PVRC
club

score.

 

This coming weekend back to CW with CQWW.  Really looking forward to hosting
a

M2 entry.  May 10 and 15 meters cooperate.

 

73,
