3 ft? I thought it was ground wave when I heard it.
When Katrina pushed that 20ft wave across the hwy and up into Coon Miller's
creek behind the pasture at my old place on the coast my wife ( an aussie )
ask what in the world are they ( nutria ). I said critters from across the
border. She thought I meant XE !
6w1 is on 14085.6 right now...loud.

Playing possum? Maybe playing nutria (small furry mammal found in
Lousiana). hi
Actually I was on 40 meters this evening. I had a few hours this afternoon
so I rebuilt the D40 and was surprised to get it finished and ready to put
up on the tower. It was sitting on a couple of plastic saw horses about 3
feet above the ground when I found XE3DX calling CQ. He gave me a 599, so I
guess it works. It will be at 65 feet when I get it on the tower. Not sure
when that will be.
Contrary to popular belief, the rebuilt tower is used and it's at 54 feet.
There are no 4-squares, stacked yagis or big amps.
Still lots to do.

-------------- Original message from Jay <ws7i@ewarg.org>: --------------
I heard that Don's new Tower was 125 feet and that he had a new 4-square for
both 40 and 80 in the new bigger swamp land out the back door. Last seen
there were some impressive stacks being put on top by a crane.
The rumour is also that he now has two Alpha 87's that he got from K5DJ and
will be shunning the low power class and going high power.

Who will be able to replace AA5AU in 2009 as Low Power winner and possibly
beat High Power winner result?
With A3S tribander, D40 dipole and 80 meters Inv Vee?
Um, I predict that the person who will replace Don, AA5AU, as 2009 Low Power
RTTY Round Up winner will be . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Don,
AA5AU!!!!!!!
Don didn't say he'd definitely not compete. He only said he'd be a little
late with the RTTY database file and that he's got a lot of antenna work to
do before next weekend. He didn't say he'd be missing the contests. Ok, so
he said he's doubtful. I'm still betting he'll be there and he'll win!
