Comments:
Goals: Given my lashed-up aerial (I hesitate to call it an
antenna) and my meager typing/cw skills, I look to this
contest as a fun game and personal competition.
All C/S&P, I saw a lot of spotted EU stations but could
not hear any of them. I also heard many spotted US
stations that did not hear me.
Had a jazz concert Friday night and Saturday night was a
bit noisy and a slog so I didn't spend a lot of time, but
this was my best score here in MA in three attempts,
although the same 75/160 dipole (properly deployed) did
much better on the coast of Maine. And just before I hung
it up Saturday night I logged my 47th state on 160: CA.
This was the highlight!

Logger: N3FJP CQ 160 Contest Log Ver 5.0.3
Antenna: My 160 "antenna" is part of a complex fan dipole:
trapped 80/40/30 [SE-NW] AND trapped 160/75 [S-N,
with the north end turning a few times back on itself
to fit in the yard]. Center feed @ 35', ~15'at ends.
