Comments:

This was another portable operation from W7AYT's Concord QTH
in the East Bay section.  This weekend gave me the opportunity
to test-run the newly configured WQ6X Lazy 8JK Inverted Vee for
the 1st-time, in conjunction with the CHA-250 Vertical and the
highly questionable WQ6X JA Sloper.  Other than the usual barrage
of RFI on 40-meters (causing a Win-7 system crash and my Android
phone to do weird things), the 8JK antenna did reasonably well
considering it's mere 30-ft apex.

I was disappointed by the lack of key multipliers this weekend,
altho I am well aware than many stations achieved a section sweep;
for WQ6X, a lowly 59 mults made it into the log.  The FT-1000mp
(with its bevy of external audio filters) performed extremely well.

There is more to be said about this contest which can be found
in the WQ6X contest BLOG: http://WQ6X.Blogspot.Com.
