Topband: 160M Contest

[Shoppa, Tim]

I had rearranged and cleaned up some untidy switch box cables Friday afternoon. But I had neglected to hook things up right.

As a result, a few hours before the test started, I made several QSO's in broad dayligh using my RX loop for transmit :-). When I switched over to transmit antenna in the middle of a Q then we knew I was cooking with gas :-). I went out and inspected the terminating resistor and while a little darker than usual it seemed to have survived!
