My second time to do single op in this contest.  I am still 
learning but I think things went much better this time.

This was also my second real contest from *my* new station.
Last year I did the contest at W5KFT's Ranch.  I do not 
yet have a feel for what was working or not working or 
how much the conditons colored what I was hearing on the 
bands but I did get a few surprises.  

- I kept busting through some big pileups on 160 and 80 meters. 
  Considering the antennas I have on these bands I was amazed
  each time it happend. 

- How well I did on 10m with my single small antenna.

- I am convinced that I need to put up some big long boom 
  yagis on 15 meters fixed on Japan.  K6NA suggested 
  a pair of 60' booms. 

- I also need to get the 10m and 15m yagis built and put 
  up before this contest next year - a bit more pattern 
  sure would help me hear all those weak signals that call.
Antennas:
