Comments:
Rig: IC 765
Antenna: 10M dipole with an extra 12' of wire clipped to one end hanging out
on my deck.
Those 117 QSOs on 40 (first ones ever from this QTH) were a pleasant
surprise! I guess the tuner in the IC765 is more tolerant that the one in
the IC746. Prior efforts from my apartment had usually ended once 20 died
as I could never get the tuner in the 746 to tune that little chunk of wire
any lower in freq. Needless to say, I was quite surprised when the 765
tuned it in less than a second. The lone 80M QSO (also a first) was the
result of N9RV hearing what little signal I could force from that chunk of
wire....the tuner still didn't like that band.
