Topband: AA7JV/MM in the CQWWDX CW contest

[GEORGE WALLNER]

Bob,
I was just quicky checking 80 m but, as you said, I had QRN. I have hunted 
down most of the QRN sources on 160 but have not done that for 80. Also, the 
QTH was unique: In Anaho Bay on Nuku Hiva Island, there were steep cliffs on 
three sides, only open from NW to NNE. For W3 probably just OK. I got great 
reports from W7 on 160, pretty poor from FL. TKS for calling anyway.

Too bad I did not get my FO license, it have been good to hand out FO/M on 
160.
73,
George
