Comments:

I decided to go low power as I do not have the antenna hardware to compete with
the big boys., plus I new Jay, N4OX would be operating high pwr from N.Fl.
Anyway I used 4 wire antennas, two wire verticals(1-49' & 1-97'), plus I
designed a 10mtr. rectangular loop which I put up in the same tree as the two
wire verticals. It was at 35'. Then I made a 2el. horz. phased array for
20mtrs.,using 1/2 wave spacing, 180 degrees out of phased. This was at 40 feet,
in the same tree, off of some large branches. I am using an Omni 6 plus, 100
watts.Two hours into the contest I had to shut down because of thunder storms.
So that blew 15mtrs. I ended up breaking the low power phone record by W3LL, by
31,000 pts. Not bad for stealth antennas in downtown Ocala, Fl. Mark W4SVO. Cu
all from NQ4I in October!
