Another contest I get to try out my in-progress station.  Wow,
what fun!!  At the last moment, I threw together a matching
network to drive all 3 antennas at once.  Worked great.  I think
I will have to incorporate it for all bands permanently.

Could only do the first several hours of the contest, as it was
my fiancee's birthday (30th) and we were going away to "Mad Town"
(Madison) to celebrate.  So I was able to play up 'till about
1pm local on Saturday and the last two hours at the end of the test.

Was happy for a 145 and 118 hour into Europe on Saturday morning.

Worked about 15 new band countries and "possibly" one all-time new
one.  Was anyone called by A51YUA??  He called in at 15:16z Saturday.
I'm positive I got the call correct.  He was weak, but Q5.  Spoke
with an accent (relative to the USA) and when asked about a QSL
he said "No QSL".  (So I guess the point is moot if I don't get
a card, right?)  15z is 2 hours past his sunset.  Oh well...
