Comments:

I love working the low bands at night!  Thanks for all those others choosing no
sleep so I could enjoy this :-)

Just a few weeks ago I outfitted my inverted-L with a FCP - folded counterpoise.
 It worked magnificently compared to previous contests involving 160m. Hard to
do a good comparison spanning months and years but it appears this FCP really
plays well.

I had a problem with my 15m antenna in CQWW and thought it was fixed; not. 
Something warms up with power and the VSWR/tuning changes a lot.  Have to go
troubleshoot that.  First thought is the M2 bead balun on the 15m feed. Some
serious time was lost Sat and Sun morning futzing with this....

I also placed around 40 radials around the base of the 20-15-10 tower and it may
be my imagination but seems to have helped.

No complaints with this one. had a great time.....
