[CQ-Contest] K9YC ARRL DX QRP

[Jim Brown]

I wasn't aware of asymmetrical propagation to/from your area. Thanks for 
that.

Very good on the 40M effort. You seem to have hit on something with the 
phased verticals. It's well known, of course, that verticals work great 
over very good ground and in the direction(s) of nearby salt water. Does 
that describe your situation?
