     Comments:  Now I know what VY1JA feels like when he says he can
     hear lots but nobody can here him....80 Metres from Saskatchewan
     with 100 watts and an inverted V yielded no QSO's...not alot of fun.
     40 had a hollow sound from here but still seemed to be pretty good.
     Discovered the reason when I went out to lock down the lower
     tribander after the test...auroral display right overhead...

     Highlight was having HR1RMG call me for his Q number 002...guess
     the XM240 works ok.

     Look for me in the CW portion...
