[TVARC] CQWW CW W3US SO(A)AB HP

[w3us at casa-aloha.net]

We just returned from a Thanksgiving week with family in NC, so I was only able to jump into this fun contest Sunday.  This may have been a blessing as there is usually less competition from the big guns on day two.  It was such a delight to see the panadapter and bandmap cram-packed with signals.  The Flex’s 250Hz filter was an essential on 20M.  The bands were all in good shape, with 15M open all day and a few goodies (KH6, ZL) to be had on 10M.  As with most contests, this entry was High Power, assisted.

Anxious to hear how the K2DM crew fared.  I heard George’s team running DX several times.  I am sure they were having fun.
