Comments:
A busy weekend with little time, so 2 objectives here
1-Casual supportive entry using my club call, off an on throughout its 3
periods, for a great contest needing more participants.
2-test the capabilities of my very conservative Fremont city lot flex test lab
station.
results--
My resonant dipole on a chimney mount remains a potent antenna!
A garden mounted commercial vertical with some decent radial deployment can
also work pretty well.
3-conditions could not have been that terrible considering Friday onset of
geomagnetic storm and also considering who and where I was able to work with
this setup.
Thanks to K6TU and the PL-259 group for recognizing the value of distance based
contesting and giving this a new lifeline! Hoping for aggessive marketing and
getting more participants in the future.
