SOAPBOX: In my 36 years on TB, this was the best 160 weekend ever from my
little pistol station! Worked 58 EU in 26 DXCC, 5 AF in 5 DXCC, and 6 SA in
5 DXCC. The band was so wide open, as the propagation shifted, I had a
difficult time holding a frequency with full legal limit! Many West Coast
and EU sounded like locals.
EQUIPMENT: K3S in full diversity; AMP: ACOM 1500; TX ANTENNA: Inv-L, 62 feet
vertical, 40 radials; RX ANTENNA: (rarely used the entire weekend) 2-el
Hi-Z, Pixel Loop
See my results on 3830.
Thanks for all the Qs.
Jim - WS6X
