------------------------
TOT 862 227 = 195,674
Rig: IC-765 (that was a little flaky on 10m at times)
Rate Meters topped out at over 300 (10 Q's) & 155 (100 Q's).
Off Times: 2015-2046, 0001-0057, 0353-0426
By far, the best results I've ever turned in for this contest. (Best before was
661 Q's). For some reason, it was much easier for me to generate runs this time.
Now I'm trying to figure out what made the big difference this time. Better condx?
Or did I do something to the station....none of the changes have been that dramatic
recently....changed the 160 antenna from an inv-L to a shunt fed tower, added more
radials to the tower. Also added the 105CA on a sidemount. And got a voice keyer.
Hmmm....whatever it was I like it!
Thanks for the Q's!
