Comments:
I have not put up my winter inverted L for 160 yet, I wish I had. There were
lots of mults there. I just loaded up my COAX FED 80 meter vertical for 160 for
a few "easy" mults. I but that arcing I heard in my poor old MFJ tuner doesn't
think those mults were so easy. Went to 10 meters occassionally, never heard a
peep, was at the pool playing till 2000Z, might have missed it.
I look at my score and those of the big boys and always notice that my QSO
numbers are "in the ballpark" on 40 and 80, but I get crushed on 20 and 15. I
guess the old dipole 40 feet high just doesn't do the job on 20 or 15.
I thought 80 was REALLY noisy, even more than I expected for summer. I was
hoping that the final 3 hours would be a bonanza of 80, not really to be, I ran
out of people to work. BUT I had fun and ran into lots of old friends.
