[TVARC] WPX CW ND4G SOAB HP

[Rich Erlichman]

Another fun contest. But, I can only take so much with headphones on. My
time spent is inflated, because I didn’t realize until well into the contest
that the minimum time off is 1 hour; and I was taking frequent breaks to
clear my head for half hour or ¾ hour at a time.

Only about 4% of the contacts were made in the RUN mode. Conditions were
screwy with lots of QSB on 10 and 15 meters, and with constant repeats I
backed off and did selective S&P getting as many prefixes (multipliers) as I
could.

I could have had more contacts on 80 meters, but the typical Summer static
on 80 meters is kicking in, and it drove me crazy after 5 minutes.

DRCG WW RTTY Contest in two weeks, and the Ukrainian DX Classic RTTY in
three.
