I promised myself I would not add to this thread but.......
Ask any US service vet (primarily Air Force) who served in KL7, VO2, OX or
TF and
you will discover that ME winters are rather wimpy.  I did 15 months in
VO2, -40F
was common, when the temp hit 0 we took off our parkas and played football.
The
upside was most of those frozen spots had MARS stations at US hams disposal
and
it was sure nice being rare DX.  There were only 12 hams in all of Zone 2
when I
was in VO2, 1967-68.
