Comments:
Lots of storms in area. Bad QRN on 20m at start. Had to QRT for lightning
after first hour. When got back on, many were already moving to 40m.
Speaking of 40m, the storm broke off half of the 40m rotatable dipole and messed
up the gamma match feeding the tower for 160m.
That meant using the 14 AVQ on the fence for 40m, far from optimum for a
domestic contest.
Used auto-tuner on 160m to mitigate the very high SWR (>5).
Oh well, at least the tower is still up!
