First Sweepstakes from new QTH in OK. I am in a subdivision with NO outside
antennas allowed. Using dipoles in the attic, but also have a Hustler 6BTV that
goes up under cover of darkness on 16 radials in the backyard. I take it off
the mount in the daytime (I live next door to the President of the HOA). It
seemed to work pretty well.
Considering the antenna situation, using a single radio, and the somewhat
limited operating time, I am not too disappointed. Missed NNY, PAC, AK, NE,
MAR, NL, and NE all of which are workable from here but I just didn't hear 'em.
Worked VY1JA early on which was a surprise. I would have put more time in,
but was just too pooped to participate :-) Helped my son with a Boy Scout
project Saturday morning and was a bit tired going in.
This is the first CW SS that I haven't worked from the N5YA QTH in several
years. My drive to Bill's QTH got a lot longer now that I am up here near
Oklahoma City. I will likely be down there for the ARRL 160 test.
Might work some on the Phone SS, also from home.
73, An N5UM
