Comments:
More activity then ever before, thanks to all especially to MN, VE3, OH and ILL
stations (Lot's of activity from those areas). I worked the first 7 hours
straight then just fooled around after that. Had almost 700 q's after first 7
hours.
Did we abandon the DX Window concept? Didn't seem like we had any policemen
either to try and enforce it. RN6BN was the loudest European heard and easily
worked. I struggled with 12 other Europeans, sorry. I am always trying to
improve receive antennas every year. Used a short 4 vertical rectangular array
(a la W8JI-thanks Tom) and it did help this year.
