Comments:
Casual operating with many breaks. :)
Antenna: Multi-wire vertical stuck up and out of the balcony on the second
floor apartment (40-10m), wires taped onto a Sotabeam telescoping mast. I
used 3 wire radials and attached the ground to all the iron grating
surrounding the balcony.
Rig: IC-7300
It was fun "being the DX" and handling pile-ups. Strange how people keep
calling and calling and calling, even when I send WA8... Does anyone
operate split in such contests? Most of the time I was just waiting for the
crowd to settle down so I could hear the station I was responding to.
Still, lots of fun.
