Comments: I was literally up a tree at 2 AM with a flashlight
the first night (it was zero degrees! -- we're on a mountain top
at 8,700 feet) trying to fix the 80/160 dipole by shaking ice off
of it. Hey, that's what ham radio and contesting is all about --
right!? It turned out to be a bad (sealed) trap that took us off
160 for the remainder of the contest. The JA and European runs were
great and the multi-path Sunday morning was unreal. Some echos
had over one second of delay (now how many times around is that?).
Our first shot at multi/single at W0TM. We all had a great time!
