Blech. That wasn't very good. 6th best July NAQP for me, and it felt worse than
that. Bands were terrible here, especially 80M. Went there for most of the
final hour (9 Qs) and could hear quite a few more than I was able to work,
missing some good mults.

Ran the second radio with a vertical driven element from a Mosley Classic 33
hanging from an elm tree, bottom tip about 4' off the group. Didn't work very
well at all, but made about 40 extra Qs and several mults that I wouldn't have
had otherwise. Was best on 20M after dark -- I guess only when the band had
thinned out enough that such a weak signal could be heard.

Found KD4POJ on 40M near the very end for a very welcome ND. Only Dan K7IA
worked from NM, and that was on 40M.

15M was better than last year, at least.

Thanks to all for the contacts.
