K9AY ...WI Section...SOLP...one radio...one low wire antenna...16 hours

661 x 77 = 101,794  (for SMC)

80 -- 2
40 -- 229
20 -- 234
15 -- 179
10 -- 17

Missed AK, NL, NT
Sure can tell I'm in the midwest -- four ND and five NE QSOs!

Barely got an antenna up -- my trusty old 40-20-15 wire dipole, about 35
feet high. Got excited when the tuner in the IC765 got a match on 10M, but
the antenna was a poor performer. I got K9DX and N0NI (my first IA mult) on
80M -- with repeats!

Worked a boatload of SMCers, along with plenty of SECC and Colorado friends.
Thanks, guys.

Getting on the air sure makes the new QTH feel like home!
