Come spring time I will be fixing my 80/40 meter antenna problem.  I have all 
the radials laid but no skywires yet.  Given that I only have one 48' tower, 
I'll have to try slopers (that will also keep marital harmony - can't have too 
many wires on the yard - but honey they're beautiful)

I had to fight and claw for every Q on 80 & 40.  Thanks to all who pulled out 
my peanut whistle.

Was fun to work KG4, KH0, V7 & JY9 on three bands each.  Also had fun with CQ 
runs on 15 & 10 meters.  Seemed like 20 meters was open to Europe almost all 
day and night.  Even managed to work some Europeans at 0600 - midnight here in 
Cheeseland.

I am not looking forward to the sunspot minimum - :-(.
