Comments:

This was a great opportunity to test my new SteppIR MonstIR antenna,
especially
on 20 mtrs as I had gained 1 element over my old Telrex 40 thru 10 mtr antenna
that only sported 3 elements on 20 and was never a great performing antenna on
that band


20 was the money band and the MonstIR performed very well and was always able
to maintain my CQ freq.


Also brought in 2 newbie Contest Ops N6NOW and KG6RCW for a good training
session


Performance on 40 and 15 was awesome and hope to give it a workout in a few
weeks
in ARRL 10 mtr if we have ANY decent propagation !


The 180 Deg Swap feature worked great when we were pointed east and Hawaii
called off the back of antenna.
>From S Zip to S9+ in a couple seconds !


My small prop pitch rotator is getting more of a workout due to the weight
distribution with heavy motorized
elements on each end of the boom !
