Would be interested to hear how you got the tribander into that suitcase 
Dave......but seriously congratulations, and hope (expect?) to work you in BERU!

As usual, the Caribbean was the place to be for this event, sitting on 
the Yanks doorstep - and the door was wide open.

Great fun with a simple station. Although it would be nice to operate 
from here with a sophisticated set-up, there is a limit to what will fit 
in a suitcase.

Rig IC 7000, 100 Watts
Antenna Tri-bander + Dipoles at about 30 feet.

Don't think I've ever heard 10m in such good shape, open to all of USA 
and Canada both days.

I could hear several UK stations joining in the fun on 10m, I hope the 
Band stays in good shape for BERU.
Certainly some G's and GM's and MD0CCE pounding into St. Vincent today, 
and bands very busy, despite there being no contest on Roger.

Now need to concentrate on saying QRZed and not QRZee! (Or to put the 
mic away)
