Soapbox
Shucks, haven't had this much fun since my last root canal jobby. Next year
I'm gonna operate with my head torqued down in a vice, just to increase the
challenge... Wow, this was fun! And look at all the DX multipliers I didn't
get. Hey Now!
Gotta get me one of them 50 kw CBC Radio boots and load up the hydro wires
around here.
Seriously though, what a grind--low power, trap inverted-vee @ 50 feet just
doesn't do it on this band. Thanks to all of you who had the patience to dig
me out of the noise, appreciate it.
I'm thinking some kind of vertical for 160 and 80, don't have a lot of real
estate, so I'll have to do lots of reading and talk to a lot of the lads to
find out what's my best bet.
Contesting is the greatest!!!
73 to all, Paul
