Comments:
Squeezed a few WAE QSOs into a weekend on the road. Started the contest Friday
evening in Chatham, MA, on Cape Cod about half a mile from the ocean. Couldn't
tell if the nearby salt water helped, as the band (40) was pretty crummy to EU.
W3 and W4 were loud, however.
Sunday afternoon I got on for a bit from my daughter's house in NJ, on 20
meters. Nothing spectacular here either.
Antenna in both places was a 52 foot vertical wire; in MA fed via a magmount on
the car plus a single 33' elevated radial; in NJ mounted on the ground with
about six random length radials.
