Best DX and Best Effort awards goes to W0AIH in Wisconsin for taking the time to
complete our QSO with accuracy. (290548Z)  W0AIH was also my best DX (850
miles). Thanks!


My 28-ga insulated wire stealth antenna sagged almost 8 feet from the ice which
made it look "fat" like a 12-ga wire! If the antenna sagged another four feet,
the apartment below me would have easily noticed my stealth antenna. The antenna
"assumed its normal position" today after the ice melted.


Yaesu FT-897 transceiver operated at 5 watts into a 5-MHz 28-gauge insulated
wire stealth antenna with ICE LOADING up 40 feet in trees next to I-75 in
downtown Atlanta industrial area. SGC SG-211 MiniSmartuner in balanced mode.
MicroHAM USB rig interface. WriteLog 10.52f.
