Comments:

Impromptu visit to Pedro and family over Thanksgiving. Great visit after a long
time; you can't beat rice and beans to go with turkey and great friends!

Was way to close to the States with the flares causing the band to go long.
Chris, ZS6EZ was definitely in a good spot, and did a fabulous job under very
unpredictable conditions (propagation and otherwise!). 

Worked almost as many JAs as DLs, and worked every station I heard except for
A45XR, whom I called at length on Long Path Saturday night. CN8WW, 9G5AA, and
5X1Z were in almost continuously, with HZ1AB, A61AJ, and JY9NX very nice on LP.

Missed zones 23, 29, 34, and 36.

Rig: Yaesu Mark-V FT-1000MP
Amp: Ameritron AL-1500
Antennas:     2 stacked 10-element Telrex Yagis @ 110'/65' (always in phase)
              5-element Telrex Yagi @ 60'
              Hy-Gain CB vertical 

It was a fun shakedown for the first small elements of the NP4A resurrection!

73,

Chip Margelli, K7JA
