Like George said, with something as simple as a 3el yagi you should
have good results unless the band is just totally dead.  Bob, KA5GLX,
VUCC'd on 50MHz with nothing more than a MFJ 9606 and a KB6KQ loop at
15 feet or so.  He snagged about half of the necessary 100 during one
of the contest week-ends.
