Comments:
I had quite a frustrating slog against the antennas. The dipoles are portable,
and I had new ones for 20 m and 10 m. Usually my 40/15 m antenna is a
workhorse and gives nice low SWR on both bands, and I don't need (or have) a
tuner. However, for whatever reason they were (pardon the pun) reacting poorly
to their deployment conditions. I had fairly high SWR on all bands but 15 m, so
power was usually 25 W, but 45 W on 15 m.
On the upside, the lower power and bad SWR made the DX all the sweeter. I
managed to work 33 DXCC entities and made good of progress toward my Worked All
States and Triple Play awards.
