Comments:

QTCs are a perversely clever idea, but I have no interest in accumulating them,
so I always use this contest as a test bench for something. Antennas this
year.

My goal was to compare two 20m antennas, an attic dipole more-or-less broadside
N/S, a little bit angled toward Europe, and an outdoor stealth end fed full wave
more-or-less perpendicular to the dipole. The attic antenna is higher than the
outside one. Results were inconclusive, meaning, I guess, that there isn't much
difference.

I plan to run some transmitting tests using the RBN. My guess is both antennas
are equally poor.

It was fun to work an itsy bit of 10m.

Thanks for assisting my tests.

73,
