160m Dipole at 30 feet (squeezed into every corner of a 80x130 lot)
CT 9.34

Not too bad for my pip-squeak effort, all S&P. Had high local QRN Friday
night/Saturday morning, but it quieted down considerably Saturday night.
Quite a pileup early Sunday morning to work VE2ZP. Was able to finally
work him after only 5 minutes.
