[CQ-Contest] Re: To the "Best of the Best"

[Jan.E.Holm at telia.se]

     Talking about big antennas, how about that big 40 at K6UA/W6VSS
     back in the 60´ties, must have been some big scores made by 
     good op´s from Dales site (maybe K6EVR), I´m not old enough to 
know,
     know I worked those guys in the late 60´ties when I was a novice
     runing flee power but dont remember what kind a signal they had.
     Also from reading old CQ´s I understand that W6HTA/W6RR back
     then was a major contest force since he seemed to win a lot.

W4KFC was my idol in mid-60's PVRC. Not only did he work three stations 
at a time, but also his hand-written log looked like a draftsman's 
careful lettering!

I'm pretty sure it was W3GRF who had an 80m beam back then, full size 
elements on a Rohn 25 boom. A little better than verticals and 
longwires!
