Comments:

First participation to this 160m contest and the last of the season.

Tx: K3 at 100W
Tx/Rx ant: quarterwave inv L on 14.8m Spiderpole down to 11m telescopic tower.
5-20m long radials with some longer ones
Logger: SD 

Best half hour with 9 US stations around 06:30 on Saturday morning.
Best DX: Texas, AB5K and FM5BH. Still no UA0 nor JA in the log.

Belgium was hit by a storm on Saturday evening around 20h. Luckily, the
fiberglass tube flexed its way through the gales...

Unfortunately, we had to quit early on Sunday morning for other activities.
No Sunday sunrise nor evening opening.

Some big pileups on DX were demotivators.
Operation was a mix between S&P and RUN.

We are very happy with the rather unexpected results.
It pays to gradually improve the setup contest by contest.
Thanks to all!
