"SOAPBOX: Rig was a TS50S barefoot (100watts) with a 4 el yagi on 10m, a bisquare on 15m, an" extended double zepp on 20m and a 40m centre fed zepp on 40m. I worked JA on 40m using my 8.5m vertical pole & AH-4 tuner! I also made my first and only contest QSO on 80m with this antenna! The quality of most operators was outstanding! Tnx and see you in 2011.ġ0m opened briefly on Sunday, otherwise conditions were not that great. South American stations were notably absent and signals from North America on Sunday were mediocre. cuagn soon K3 +500W, hexbeam 20/15/10m, vertical 80/40mĪfter some initial keying problems (doh!), I got off to a good start on Saturday afternoon but Sunday was a slog. I used the off-time to build a new hv dc supply for the amp and some other stuff. Conds were not too good and activity mainly on 40/20m. I'm happy I could arrange to join the contest. Quality Synthetic Lawn in Fawn Creek, Kansas will provide you with much more than a green turf and a means of conserving water.
