Comments:

Very busy weekend with the family.Only had some short occasions to be on but
really enjoyed it from my home station .
No go on 160(no aerial) and on 80 to late to get on and heavy local noise.
Was nicely surprised to see that at least some guys copied me on 40 although I
regret to hear most of them say qsx somewhere around 7020 or 7030 .Some off the
big guns did so and said that there was no other place to listen but we in
Reg.1
according to bandplan have to stay above 7040 so what.. Contest is no exception
to this rule and the only offenders are the ones calling the station that is
listening so low.(me included).Some of the US side went up higher to listen so
at least a comment helps sometimes . We in EU know what a crowded band means
hi.
No offense ..
On 20 15 and 10 seemed to get out too on the verticals allthough 10 was the
best place to stay . 
Rig was TS850s approx.100 Watts and all verticals on the balcony or on the
house.
For 80 a 1/4 wave with 2 elevated crumbled radials laying around (not used )
For 40 a 1/4 wave with 4 elevated radials feedpoint at some 15 m above ground
overlooking the rooftop and also used on 15 as a 3/4 with 4 separate radials
and working very well.
For 20 a 1/4 wave with 3 elevated radials at 8 m above ground and on 10 m an
old 5/8 wave converted CB vertical also at 8 m .

PC 486/DX100 with CT 9.48

Thank You all and see You in the WPXes with OT0A,

Special cgrts to Aurelio - PA3EZL and Danny ON7NQ for their fine scores
