Comments:
A bad insulator on a power pole somewhere in the neighbourhood had me surely
sounding like an alligator a lot of the time. OFten s3, but peaking to s9 at
times, there were moments I couldn't even hear the guys in New England
properly. ARGH !
First night I used a dipole @ 22' with an SWR that was near infinite.(no joke)
and worked out as far as 8-land. Some good ears deep into New England and the
Mid West.
Sat afternoon I reinstalled my old inverted L so I could get on and play. Was
hearing OM2VL nearly 2 hours before sunset here.
Never even heard KL7, KH6 nor KP4...only worked 2 W6 sections and no VE7's
heard at all, though VE6BBP was real loud... (weird!)
Thanks for all the patience.
Mike VE9AA
