Comments:
Antenna was a rotary dipole at 80ft.
Had been hoping to beat the ENGLAND Record on 40m SSB held by G3NLY since 1993,
but that wasn't to be. I didn't get enough Multpliers and my points-per-QSO was
far too low.
The expanded 40m band in Region 1 makes a huge difference. Hard to believe that
we all had to squeeze into just 100kHz only a few years ago. One or two EU ops
appear to believe that the band has also been expanded for them above 7.2MHz,
but I don't think that that's the case!
Why are boom-mic headsets always SO uncomfortable? It's like having a vice on
your head! [Fortunately these monstrous head-pain generators are not needed for
CW!]
