Jan North American QSO Party, SSB (2020)

Did this for the club competition.
Was planning on 10 Q's, but called CQ @ 7181 and stations kept coming. Wound up
working 54 instead of the intended 10.

Jan NAQP CW de NR4M (2020)

Moved from 40 before I planned, due to an intermittent high SWR on the Moxon.
Other antennas on 40 seemed to be a bit too high, so moved to 80 rather early.
Nice to see plenty of stations on 15.

This was a last minute thing, that turned out to be as much about 'Elmering', as
operating. Arnie is a good listener and understands things well.

(I would call him 'smart' or 'intelligent', but then again, there is the story
of going INTO a small cave after a bear, while hunting. I think I will find it
hard to use those two words, and maybe other, when describing Arnie.)

Was Arnie's, KN4DEB, second ever contest. Very new ham.
The late hours really killed me. Got bed after 2 AM and back up at 6 AM!

NAQP RTTY de NR4M (2017)

Started a bit late due to a total crapout of my Flex radio. Then, had to shut down because of lightning and hail! After some time off, I got back on later and worked some on 80.

North American QSO Party, (CW - January 2017)

Trying to get the hang of SO2R, but wasn't in the cards. Just before the contest my Flex 6700 decided to turn itself into a 'brick'.
Still not a lot of antenna choices here for domestic contests. 20 meters is the worst, with the lowest antenna I can turn west is at 120 feet. The lower in frequency I go, the more appropriate the antenna choices.
