   This was the first chance to see how my new QTH plays....not bad at all.  I
seemed to "own" the path to South America, which was cool considering the
minimal hardware.  The vertical played extremely well, and I actually felt
"loud" at times.  
   Unfortunately, I suffer quite a bit of line noise, and it averaged S3-S5
everywhere.  It's been pretty dry down here, and without rain, salt builds up on
the power pole insulaters, causing them to arc.  As a result, I S&Ped the entire
weekend, not wanting to be an alligator.
   It seemed like conditions were very good, not counting the blackout Sunday. 
I didn't hear much deep Asian stuff - maybe due to the downslide of the cycle
but more likely the lack of a substantial signal-sucking antenna.
   I had fun loading up the R-7 vertical (40-10m) on 75 and working several
Carribean multipliers, including C5Z who wins "best ears" award for hearing
me.
