Team: SCCC #2
Comments: Rig still higher than antenna on 20m although I used a vertical
this time. Threw up a 40m inv vee with apex at 20 ft on Saturday afternoon.
Something must have got wet. I couldn't get the SWR below a zillion to one.
Thank god for tube finals. Still made 56 Q's on 40. Since it sorta-kinda
played there, I took it to 80 for another 16 Q's and the AZ mult snag.
Probably shaved 5 yrs off the finals. I long for the days on the half acre
of flat land in the desert. 300 Q's from this HOA QTH is likely impossible.
Note: The name "Dennis" sucks for Sprint. Time to change my name to "Bob".
