Comments
Conditions seemed fantastic for the times I was on. Especially 15m.
The main goal for the weekend was to get together with W2SC and test our WRTC station setup. Did that in the backyard on Saturday in the most perfect weather imaginable (callsign WR1TC).
Watched Formula 1 and Indy 500 on Sunday while operating. Always fun how the score takes off as the QSO totals rise.
Nice to see so much activity (and prefixes) from Ukraine.
