Comments:
I operated for 38 hours of the contest. This is my best score to date
and the first one from GD where I spent alot of the time cqing for a
change and holding the frequency, on 100w! My main problem was that the
rotator for the 3 ele yagi was damaged in the recent storms and the
stopped working. So the whole contest had the yagi facing East. Now what
could I have achieved had I been able to turn it round :))
