IC-765/Homebrew 3CX1200 amp, plus TS-930/Gap Vertical for 2nd radio
First full time effort from new station. Everything worked and I was
quite pleased about that.
Up until Sunday night, calling people barefoot with the GAP vertical
was kind of fun. When the fresh blood showed up at the end with big
piles on them it turned into a form of torture. But that little radio
and antenna was probably worth about two or three hundred Q's.
Why do we keep getting teased with good conditions all year and then
see them go down the toilet during contest weekends?
