Comments:
Strictly search and pounce here. Quarter wave slopers hung low
(38 feet for 15/20M, 22 feet for 40/80M) preclude calling CQ.
I tried it for 5 minutes or so on 80 and had only one caller.
Surprisingly, the really low 80/40 wire outperformed the
higher 20/15 wire. I spent nearly 3 hours trying to work
VP2EE on 15M ! Only after everyone else in the country
worked him was I able to break through. The highlight of
the contest was working Australian on both 80 and 40, and
New Caledonia on 40 with my puny antenna !
