Again like the old times contesting at 101 Deg F, radio was
cooled with 3 High speed fans during the VERY short Runs and
the Very long CQ's in dead band at DM22

At 21 Z Quit and drove Home.
Some notes:
A great opening to VE3 like never before, the 2 longest Shots where N1BUG
and W1MU.
This time using a 8 L LFA 12.5mts Boom @ 100ft, 3L LFA at 50ft fixed,
Stacked pair of home brew halos and 1/4 w Vertical ground plane at 60ft.
The set up works great, most of the time the LFA was at 50 Deg. and the halos
work the others stations out of that direction, very sharp the 8L, great to
avoid
line Noise from the City, made possible a lot of contacts hard or impossible
before with the 6M7JHV at 140ft, thanks to Justin G0KSC for the great
antennas he design and sell, (I build my own), also thanks to all those
OM's that keep calling me with QSB was present, the only station that hear
and do not made the QSO was NGÃ?R , more than 10 minutes calling him and
Nada.
Hope next time
A few photos of the set up
