Topband: Contest conditions

["Gary Smith" <Gary@ka1j.com>]

Weird condx here for the contest, I could 
hear plenty of DX but even with a KW, they 
often couldn't hear me. Sometimes the Rx 
antenna was less helpful to listen with 
and other times it was incredibly 
effective like someone pulled the plug on 
all directions except the one the DX was 
at.

Wasn't the antennas, I still made great 
contacts with some faint DX who I could 
barely hear, it was unusual conditions. 
Think the uncertainty is one of the 
reasons I love 160 as much as I do.

73,
