Gary,

I ran the tables on PT0S including 160 SSB.  Nothing I have sent to LOTW 
is posted by the ARRL even where I look up the sent in QSO's.  The last 
confirmation was listed as November 5, 2012.  All the QSO's check with 
ClubLog.  On the PT0S last day i put together a 3 element 6 meter beam 
and heard them calling CQ (I think via machine) both NP4A and i called 
them for a half an hour but no contact.  Poor thinking and planning on 
my part as I could have done 6 meters as well if i would have planned 
for it.  Worked TR8CA tonight and he was 599 in here on 50.110.  I 
should write an article on how to make a three element 6 meter beam with 
PVC and cable ties in 1 hour!


Thanks for the advice


Herb, KV4FZ
