Topbanders,

The weather forecast appears to be favourable for at least part of the
contest, so the balloon antenna (half wave....almost... on 160m) will be
used in the CQWW and QRP (Ten Tec 555) power.

As the property is not large, the transmit antenna will undoubtedly cause
havoc with the flags and pennants scattered around the place, but that is
part of the challenge.

With M6T just down the road, the extreme band edges appear the only safe
place to hide out.  (Even then the RX will be challenged)

CU in the test!
