Hi Peter, One of our op,s worked about 90 stateside stations from here on an 
adhock basis last night to relieve boredom whilst  competeing in another 
contest that was getting very slow. Generally strong U.S. signals, Texas 
particulary loud. Station here Ten Tec Orion, Acom 2000, aerial is a 
fullwave quad loop hung diagonally from  2 x 80 ft towers fed with coax at 
top corner, 73 Paul G6PZ.
