Comments:

Well that was fun! Beat my personal best by 250 Q's. Upgraded from a 30'
inverted L to a 70' L, an what a difference! Got thru on DX and pileups in first
or second call almost everytime. 

I do know I could have cracked 1k Q's with ease, and maybe upwards to 1100+ with
any RX antenna. Battled a combo of S9 noise (I'm in a subdivision with a small
lot) plus a local AM broadcast station that is having TX issues and causing
splatter across the spectrum. 

I made at least 100 Q's using my 40 meter delta loop as a RX antenna, that would
not been made without it. 

Hope to see you next week on 10!
