Comments:
Missed Saturday evening because had to pick someone up at the airport and the
flight was delayed. Otherwise, propagation was low and worked all I could hear
and all who could hear me.
Picked up an A503s on Thursday before the contest and put it up on a 23'
section of fence rail with an arm-strong rotator. With this setup i found out
that I have multiple sources of QRN, that is what I get for living in the city.
However, having the Yagi did help, with the 90' flat-top wire@45' it is almost
impossible to hear any weak signal.
Finally found a source for element to boom stand-offs so I can finish my 5el
LFA. Hope to have it operational by Sept. VHF.
