Comments:

Fun contest! Some very good conditions. No sleep other than a few minutes at the
keyboard before sunrise on Sunday. The high 204BA (at 98.5 feet) in the 3-stack
array stopped working early Friday evening (blown balun?), so only had the lower
pair (28/65 feet) fixed on Europe and a low 3-el delta loop fixed South for most
of the contest.

Gear:
FT1000MP main radio, TS940S for spotting RX, single and phased Beverage rx
antennas. Three 100-ft Rohn towers:
160: series-fed 100 ft Rohn 25
 80: Inverted Vee at 95 feet, 1/4 wave wire vertical
 40: 3-el Hy Gain Explorer at 83 feet on Ring Rotor, 1/4 wave wire vertical.
 20: 4/4/4 stack of HyGain 204BAs at 28/65/98.5 feet (top one died early in
     test). Bottom pair fixed on Europe.
     Fixed South 3-el Delta Loop at about 25 feet apex
 15: 4/4 stack of Wilson 415M yagis at 100/50 feet, bottom fixed on Europe.
     Fixed South 3-el Delta Loop at about 20 feet apex
 10: 5-el HyGain 105BA (modified W3XU design) at 55 feet, side-mount rotor.
     5-el homebrew yagi at 16 feet, fixed south.
     3-el delta loop at 20 feet, fixed west.
