Comments:

Had hoped for better conditions for The Stew, but seemed like regional Qs were
all I could manage. Best DX: two KH6s for 10 points, and K9MMS for 9 points.
Wasn't on during the JA opening, if there was one.

Added four more 75-foot radials -- total now a band-busting 8 -- in a
semicircle from east to west on Friday afternoon (thanks to a smokin' hot deal
on surplus telephone station wire at the local Princess Auto, $1.50/75' roll).
The 135'-long (80v + 55h) sloping Inverted-L definitely played better, but lots
of improvement needed. Another trip to that store is in my future. Gonna need a
bigger basket.

Thanks for the Qs. RTTY Roundup next. Happy holidays all.
