Comments:
Thought I was going out of town, but ended up staying home in any case.
Couldn't commit to go to NQ4I, and had a crazy weekend schedule. So, I ended up
with a few hours to hand out some contacts and try to get a few more
confirmations on 80m for DXCC.
Inverted-L works pretty well for DX, but by 0500z, the dipole was just as
effective. Of course, lots of stations couldn't hear my pipsqueak station at
all.
I ran assisted, because I was also watching dx spots for W1AW-portable
stations. Best moment was finding KG4LB before he was spotted. That would be a
new one for me on 80m.
