Comments:
Another great contest. I don't know why I had such a hard time getting through
to the European stations, they were in here from 2200z till 0900z but it seemed
I cud only work them around 0500z or later..spent way too much time calling
tjhose guys, they were extremely loud here but did not hear me. I know my
antenna needs work, it was hastily put up, just a simple Inv. L with vertical
section at 40 feet. I put up a short beverage in the woods that was supposed to
be favored to the NW direction, but it worked for Europe better than the NW
direction and was way better than the Tx antenna, maybe my resistor is bad??
