[CQ-Contest] ANOTHER SMELLY SUBJECT

[Phillip Landmeier]

Hi Bill,

You could well be right. This happens on 15 and 10 meters, apparently 
due to ionospheric "tilting" that causes so-called one-way skip. But 
this was on 20M where the phenomenon is rarer but not impossible.

He may have had local interference. Who knows? But the image of a 
4CX10000A sitting in a cabinet next to him did cross my mind ;-)
