"I wasn't as rested as I wanted to be -- I was yawning the first evening.
Maybe there's something to the N3BB Maxim on how WPX CW and Dayton don't
mix. There were a few times when I got punchy and tried to run on one
band with the amp set on another, or discovered I'd forgotten to change
back from the SE antenna, but there were also some really great times
'in the zone', really working both radios very effectively. I know the
SO2R hot shots can work both rigs even in a very high rate period, but
there were probably two to three hours in all when I focused on just one
rig, either because I was getting multiple callers to each CQ, or I was
straining on 40 meters to hear weak signals." - K5PI
"This was not a serious effort. It was a good opportunity to try out the
Icom IC-756 Pro II I borrowed from Trent K5TWJ (I liked it!) Conditions
were generally better than expected. I even worked five Europeans on 10
meters." - N5AW
"Thanks to NO5W, N1LN, KG5U, and K5GA for a super effort and taking up
my slack, as I had to compete in a motocross event on Sunday. After
returning from my race Sunday afternoon, KG5U thought it very interesting
that I knew how I finished and also had my plaque under my arm from the
event the same day!" - K5NZ
"The bands were pretty good, and no real surprises." - N3BB
"Yes, the cycle is going into the gutter!" - UA0OFF (@ NX5M)
