Equipment Description:
FT-101ZD (100W)
5 ele monobander, 8m above ground

Antenna was put up just a day before contest, on our club's VHF/UHF contest
location, just for fun.
I had a lot of it despite bad conditions to USA. Managed to work 10 QSO's
on saturday 
with 2 mult's. On sunday I improved my score a lot as 4 QSO's that i made
were all mult's :=).
I heard much more USA stns than I worked, but couldn't break through LU's,
PY's...
With 3 hours of opening to USA on Saturday and 1 hour on Sunday, my beam
only 30 cm away from
144MHz ant system pointing directly to 15m tower, I'm happy with my results.
CU next year!

73,


Bob, 9a3ji
