I was going to work straight through for 10 hours, but we lost power for
thirty minutes with an hour left in the contest. We had heavy storms go
through earlier that wiped out 40 & 80 for at least an hour.
This was my first full contest effort with the Mosley, and it worked great.
I was not happy with the Super Loop, but attribute it to the location and
orientation. I have used it successfully on DXpeditions and other contests
at our club station. I need to move it out of the trees and re-orient it 90
degrees.
Great contest with a lot of participation. Thanks to everyone for the QSOs.
