Here are my results from this past weekend's RTTY contest.

Conditions were sporadic with 10 meters appearing to shut down early. 15 meters not too far behind, but at least open when it was open. I chose the 100w Low Power mode this go'round. It was a struggle at best. It took discipline to not turn on the amp when a possible contact was getting away; especially when I knew he would have heard me with 500w.

 

Next weekend is a big one: CQ WW RTTY WPX contest.
