Conditions didn't sound that great here, and my score suffered despite ongoing
station improvements.  The bands opened late and closed early, and I had a tough
time on 40.  I think higher antennas would have helped a lot this weekend.  New
for this contest was a 3 element 20 on a 20 foot boom, which really was not much
louder than my tribander, and a 160 meter inverted L, which did work OK.  Also
new was a SO2R Master, replacing my old home brew box.

                  73 to all, and see you next time !
