CQWW 160M SSB CONTEST POST FESTUM

Never before had a 160M vertical been erected and re-erected so many times,
and never before had it come down just as many times. Never before had so
much effort, money and time gone into one antenna, and never before had so
many engineering calculations proved to be seriously wrong for wind
survival. Never before had so grave miscalculations been experienced with
Atlantic wind forces. Never before had a highly expected operation been
conducted with so little, both emotionally and technically. At the last
minute, only a watery dipole was hoisted!

But never before had a World Record been achieved with the above script and
emotions, blessed with only fair radio conditions.

And in the end, was it fun? You bet!

Thanks to Pertti, OH2PM for joining me for this winning misadventure. One
different kind of scalp under our belts. Needless to say, new calculations 
are underway - by a new engineering team. And the wreckage still lies on the
battlefield.

See you in the ARRL DX Contest.

Martti, OH2BH/CU2KG
