Comments:

Best Solar Cycle opening for CQWW CW in a LONG time. Band Condx like these
really add to the fun ! Could have done better on our mult stn but
discovered
TS-950 which just came back from repair was busted in CW mode and would not
key
- My K3 went to Ascension with Marko N5ZO ( ZD8O ) so all we had left
were a TS-440 and TS-450 with no CW filters .... but they worked in a pinch
!
Hope we can rustle up some more CW Ops for next time, we were woefully short
of
OPs this year - I think they were all home resting and digesting TURKEY! The
3
El SteppIR consistently beat out the F12 C3S and the F12 2 El 40 mtr Yagi at
76
ft on top of our 950 ft ( SSL ) hill, really played and made 40 the money
band!

We had 126 discrete countries worked and only missed Zone 22
( We had 101 countries on 40 mtrs ! ...and missed WAZ by 1 Zone ! )

( VU2PTT where were you ?! )

Thanks to  WQ6X and K4RB Ops and K6KAL - Computer Support
and N6OX for loan of 70 ft Tower Trailer with 40 Yagi and C3, for all the
help ! )
