Comments:

Obviously great conditions for the weekend with superb propogation on all 
bands.  The low bands were exceptional for this time of the sunspot cycle.  We 
had high winds on Friday night that destroyed the feedline on my 20/15/10 stack 
so used a ground mounted vertical instead of the disabled array.  This 
experience sure made me appreciate the gain of the stack even more.  Using the 
vertical made it difficult to copy many calls hence the need for a lot of 
repeats.  

160 was a high point as significant changes were made to the 1/4 wave monopole 
that seemed to make noticeable differences with the antenna.  Have never done 
as well on 160 since moving back to the right coast.  

Other than cables pulling apart and rotors that did not turn, it was a great 
weekend.
