Comments:

rough night; only a handful even workable on 20M.  160 was very odd tonight,
usually I can hear folks at least decent, but signals were way down tonight,
even the guys from OH.  The NJ SUPERstation was comfortable copy though!!  Go
Jim!!

Spent the last hour or so of dark putting up the 20M west array, temporarily a
Lazy H fed w/ homebrew open wire line.  Not sure how effective that was, since
1) way lower than it's supposed to be, 2) it is running through 500 ft of new
coax.  Decided not to cut up the new roll until I get the new 2x6 SO2R switches
mounted next week.  It's costing about 3dB signal loss when switched to that
antenna.

Still getting the hang of switching directional arrays.  It was very effective
on 40M, esp. getting the N/S dipole back up this morning to grab those fellahs
in the NE.
