Somewhat pleased with new tower and Skyhawk beam, but do miss having the two stacked A3S beams that the new tower and Skyhawk replaced. Was also without a 80 meter dipole, but did have a less than efficient 40 meter dipole that just needs to be higher up the tower and perhaps in a V rather than a flatop...although a 40 meter beam or rotatable dipole may be in the near future. All in all, and with the limited hours worked saturday and sunday afternoon, was somewhat happy with results. Had some issues with my CT contest program that shut me down for several hours and I do believe its time to move on to another contest program. MFJ voice keyer crapped out on me, which I expected it to do sooner or later, and xyl forgot to bake me my contest chocolate chip cookies. K3lr, K8az, and several others in the area were heard very well here in Howland.
Good luck to all NCC..
