Comments:

This was my second RAC Canada Winter Contest. In the 2001 contest I operated six
hours and had 37 Q's (6 on 40M, 31 on 15M) using a top end-fed 73-foot
Inverted-L 24-gauge insulated wire stealth antenna up 40 feet in trees.

Best DX in this contest: LZ4TX, Bulgaria (40M CW @ 0356z; 5500 miles; 1100
miles/watt)

160M CW: VE3DC/Ontario. Thanks!

Yaesu FT-817 QRP xcvr with W4RT.com's OBF, 5 watts to 5-MHz OCF 28-gauge
insulated wire stealth antenna up 40 feet in trees next to I-75 in downtown
Atlanta industrial area. SGC SG-237 autotuner.
