Comments:
This was our first ARRL SSB DX Contest multi-2 effort as a result of our
team's decision to downsize for better Covid-19 safety. We enjoyed the unique
strategic challenges of this category.
Nighttime team: W3IDT W3LPL KD4D WR3Z
Daytime team: K3MM K3RA N3QE NN3W
Our new triband Yagi on a 50 foot AB-577 mast 1300 feet south of our
transmitting antennas dramatically improved our in-band receiving capabilities
and contributed hundreds 20 meter S&P QSOs interleaved with our run QSOs.
