     Why do I do this? I hate SSB. But its a CONTEST. Aye, there's the rub!
     
     
     The inverted L with semi-elevated radials played very well - too well 
     for the conditions,  We needed a second antenna with a good high 
     vertical lobe!  Some of those pesky Italians were crawling right onto 
     my frequency and CQing in my face.  But when it came time to play 
     pileup buster for a A92 or VQ9, then it worked great!  Maybe we will 
     have better luck and better conditions next weekend....
