Inverted Vee apex at 115 feet broadside to Europe.
FT-990 & AL-1200

Overall conditions were not great.  No real EU runs
either night.  Did have VK1FF answer my CQ on
Saturday morning.  Missed JA1YDU on Saturday morning.
He was solid copy from 1200Z-1230Z, but I could
never get his attention.  Where were: PY, LU, YV, and
KP2.  Never heard the 5V guys.  Did anyone in the US 
work them on 80M?  No hope for A71CW on Saturday
night.  Too big of an European wall.

Missed the last few hours of the test because I was
dead tired after spending 4 hours on the tower
with AA4NC.  We got the new mast up and the 402CD
back up.  Still got a 6M beam and the 204BA to
go up later.  Soon AA4NC will be back to fully
operational status after H. Fran.
