Comments:
First time for a serious effort in the TBSP. Conditions were pretty good but
activity was a little lower then hoped for.
Worked 76-2nd radio Q's using an 80 meter sloping V-beam (500' on a leg) for rx
and tx (called CQ 100% of the time of the 14 hours). Main antenna is a 1/4W
vertical and 8 short vertical (W8JI) rx array. On tx the V-beam seemed about
the same as the vertical. On rx used the short vertical array in one ear and a
SE Beveridge in the other ear and mixed in the 2nd radio audio or dumped the
Beveridge from the sub rx.
Worked 54 DX stations in 25 countries, first European at 2235z and last at
0753z. Never heard any VK's JA's or other Pacific.
Thanks for all the repeats and Q's.
Happy New Year to all.
