My congratulations to KE2PF for an exceptional score. With marginal condx=

overall and heavy QRN on the low bands, a "super" station clearly makes =

a difference. =

In addition, my congratulations to Bob KQ2M  (4.6M) who beat my "all wire=

antenna score with a similar setup.  Also congratulations to Fred K3ZO  =

for taking the PVRC top spot with 4.7 M.   =

 Station Description:

 IC765/AL1200

All antennas mounted between trees. Heights 70 to 80 feet maximum.
Three two wire beverages (maximum length 450 feet) for receive.

I was pleased with the performance of the 3L 40 beam. It is an exceptiona=
l =

antenna with a very good pattern.  I am not sure of the exact height but
would estimate 75 feet maximum.
=0D
The phased dipoles on 80 (spaced about a quarter wave) also appear very =

promising. Computer modeling indicates that the gain over a dipole at  =

70 feet is 4.5 db bidirectionally with a lower radiation angle. =
