SETUP:
TS-850 @ 100W
10+15+20m   triband trapped dipole at approx. 9m
40m         shorty vertical dipole with capacity spokes
80m         T-loaded vertical, 4 long radials, 20 shorter
software:   N1MMLogger, QTC RX interface is the best around, give it a try

THOUGHTS:
* WAE CW is my favourite contest, this is once again a proven fact
* 10m was dead in this QTH with this 'antenna' (ahum!), don't even know how I
managed to work 2 stations there...
* working USA on 80m and having a small modest run there is totally new
(woohoo!) to me but it was only possible the first night, second night I had S7
noise on 80m and signals were down several S-points
* Why are so many stations reluctant to give QTCs? It boosts your score, and on
the WAE side, it adds to the fun! I had to beg and beg and got numerous NILs,
QRUs, SRIs or LATERs
* I thought there was less activity than last year?

Still a lot of fun, TNX fr all QSOs es QTCs.
