Comments:

According to the weather forecast, frost could form at higher altitudes. My
contest QTH in the mountains is 1000 m above sea level. I made one good decision
before the contest. I installed only a short 3el Yagi antenna on the tower. The
weather forecast was right and the 16 mm diameter elements grew to over 60 mm,
so I had to climb the frozen tower to 28 m every two hours and beat the ice off
the antenna. Unfortunately on Sunday during the American pileup this antenna
broke. Still, I enjoyed the contest and look forward to the next one (maybe
again from the Atlantic Ocean).
