Comments:
ICOM IC-7410, Ameritron AL-80B amplifier, 500 Watts output;
160m Inverted Vee apex at 5m (17 feet).
NE beverage antenna 144m (470 ft) long.
My expectations were low with my antenna exhibiting an infinite VSWR when I
last
attempted to use it two weeks before the contest. However, for whatever reason,
the antenna was working for the contest.
My signal is weak, so I was surprised I could work anything in the contest.
I had to put in a lot of time and I could not work most of the DX heard during
the contest. Heard 23 countries I did not work, including many Europeans.
Thanks for your patience and QSOs. 73, Frank
