I arrived on the island this afternoon about 1 PM. The airport in Marsh Harbor is about a 1 hour drive from the QTH. We drove in a blinding rainstorm. Looks like the weather will be bad all weekend. 40M is extremely noisy this evening and it doesn't look like it will get any better. As a result, I've decided to switch to SINGLE BAND 20M. 20M is much less noisy and should provide good rates. My goal is to beat the following records on 20M for C6:
Category Call Score QSO's Zones Countries Year record set
14 VP7NS 326,821 1199 28 93 65
L14 C6ALZ 60,819 627 18 39 03
The all time NA record is:
L14 XE1CQ 732,017 2564 34 109 06
I think that one will be tough to beat, but I can dream.
The station is all set up on a table in the villa and ready to go.
I am going to bed soon...been up since 4 A.M. this morning and need to get loops set up for 20M tomorrow before the contest.
