Comments:
Well that was fun! Lost all my antennas in the great Ice Storm of Dec 21-22.
See pics on QRz.com. Got all the Beverages fixed on the 22nd and put up a new
80m doublet for 160m using my gin pole on top of the 40ft tower for 48ft at
apex. Did this during a snow squall on the 25th and finished the balanced
feedline install on the 26th. This WX obviously gave me extra db as I got into
Central and Eastern EU and Chile often with one call. Disappointed the Western
EU sunrise opening did not happen. EU signals got weak and watery around 0530Z
and I packed it in at 0730Z. Glad I worked V5/DL3DXX on Friday night during the
RAC Winter because I didn't hear him Saturday. Great opening to the West
Coast...it had been awhile. Though no KH6 heard. Lots of great ops with good
ears. Thanks for the Qs. See you for CQ160.
