Re: K6AA Prelim Totals

I don't have the totals but the initial guess is around 2400-2500 Q's for our 4F station.

We had an issue once it got dark that didn't help. We were at an EOC building/lot and there was a light outside that kicked in and caused S9 noise on most of the machines. The noise went away when the light was on, but it was cycling every couple of mins and when it was out or not fully on, we could only hear S9+ stations. So from about 8pm to 6am we had to deal with that.

It was a blast but I'm exhausted. Was there from 8am Sat through 4pm Sun for setup/tear down and all operations in between. Got about 3 hours sleep in my car between 3am and 6am Sun morning.

20m SSB was very good as was 40m SSB and CW. 6m was the station I went to when I wanted to relax. We had less then 75 Q's and almost all except 5 were in the local area. Right when we were getting ready to shut down there was a short opening to FL but it was dead most of the weekend, at least for us.

Crashed after I got home and had a shower and dinner. We'll see what I feel like later in the day, Can't wait for next year.
