                  INTERNET SPRINT CONTEST -- APRIL 1996
         QSOs     
Total    109 
40m       45      Inv. Vee @ 25'
20m       64      Attic Dipole @ 23'

Power: 150 W
RIG: FT-990, FL7000 & 486DX2-66 MHz running N6TRLog ver. 5.51
My best result so far.  I spent the day putting up an "invisible" inverted
vee antenna for 40m made of the good old #26 stranded copperweld in the back
yard to replace the Delta Loop, but didn't get the 20m dipole up in time, or
I would have done better.  My apologies to those of you who didn't get a
coherent response on 20m, as the attic dipole, being eight feet above the
shack, causes RF in the keyer, making me stutter more than normal.
