Comments:

Not much of a score but as they say, every little bit helps!:) Of course, as
expected, Murphy decided to pay a visit at ARS KG4IGC as well. My W4tww
inverted L has apparently bit the dust, SWR of 25:1 on the low end of the band.
I suspect corrosion, as the antenna was on the ground for awhile and plus the
coax used was very old. I managed to get my three 88 foot zepps to tune for 160
so that is how I got to play in the test. I had a really good time despite the
problems and plan to build a new w4tww as soon as I can afford new coax.

Cheers and 73,
Frank KG4igc
