CQWW160 CW  Multi-op

The crew consisted of W7CW W7GS WU7Y N7VWV, at the 1AB Ranch in Gillette
Wyoming.

Gear was all TenTec, 6+, Paragon, 400wt Centaur,  with a 140ft vertical
with too many radials (ruined a perfectly good pasture, cows do eat radials
laying on the surface).  4 beverages.

882 Qso's    55 sections   24 countries       184,149  points

We're happy, apparently a new record for Wyoming. No Europe the first
night, except for some of the nearer islands.  Did work some Europe Sat
night but very weak with the East coast gobbling them up.  Worked KH8 and
V73 in broad daylight Saturday morning,  did the same with VK and UA0
Sunday morning.  Central America was dragging, but did manage to work the
YS and a CE, plus the Carib. Guys.
