Living on a city lot with no room for receiving antennas makes this 
contest a quite a challenge. I apologize to all those that I could 
not dig out, there were quite a few. I was finally able to stay awake 
for a full night/morning on Sat/Sun and was rewarded by getting a few 
JAs, a first for me on 160. Alot of coffee, a bee pollen pill and 
some nice condx helped in that regard. Must say that the DX window 
seemed to be well respected. Actaully heard Europe on 160m for the 
first time at this QTH although was unable to raise any of them. Lets 
hope Santa brings me abt 10 acres for Christmas. Best of the holidays 
to all and see you near the end of January.
