Home QTH antennas limited to what I can fit on my apt balcony...so portable for 
my xmas present to myself.
I had a ball..cold and all.  Some qrn but lots of wind noise. Lots of good OPS
Thanks for your patience. 
Best dx KH7A  KH6ND UA2FF one wiff of a DL but faded.
Looking back I should have ran more early in the evening.
Listened in the DX window..but not much DX heard.. but high point ratio from
