> First off, thanks to station owner Rick who was
> unfortunately overseas on work

> year’s test.
> However, he was able to make some refinements to the normal
> M/M configuration
> to give us a multiplier operating position with a 1/4 wave
> vertical that worked
> flawlessly during the weekend.

> Compared to recent conditions on 160, conditions were good
> but not outstanding.
>   Although Asia was easily workable in the weeks
> leading up to the contest, we
> did not work a JA on either night.  JH4UYB was audible
> early on Saturday but
> that was the only time we heard JA.  We did work NH0Z
> Saturday morning and
> RU0FM Sunday for our only far eastern Q.  On the plus
> side we did work both VK

> Saturday evening being somewhat better and allowed us make

> Domestically, conditions were good with widespread activity

> VE8.
