725 x 78 for 115,206 before the Errors and Omissions department takes a look at
the log. FT-100MP, Inverted L, Dipole up 60ft, and K9AY loop for rx. Not bad
for a 150 x 180 city lot.
Had 2 great hours friday night running stateside calls. I did pick up some
more DX Saturday nite as band conditions seemed to improve. Missed SB, SF, ND,
in the states and VE1, VE4, and VE6 north of the border. Worked ZF, XE, HI,
P4, PJ2, F, GI, and 5B for DX. I busted the pileup into 5B only to have the
call wrong in the log. Got an e-mail from K4EA pointing that out (C6AQQ, not
C4AQQ). Stoopid me.
In the propogation of the weird department, I had to point the rx loop
northwest to pickup STX stations and southwest to get stations in the
northwest.
Thanks to K4NO for letting me borrow his rig and rx loop. That Mark-V is one
sweet rig.
Have a great Holiday season.
73,
