Really had a lot of fun operating from home with a tower, 10 & 15
meter stacks and two rotating antennas! Lots more antennas to go
and a second tower to complete with stacks on that one too. Hope
to have that done by the fall if our first child (expected in three
weeks!) allows me to start building again in 6 - 8 weeks?
15 was AWESOME and it was hard to tell myself not to stay on it for
all 24 hours but rather to tear myself away from the only band I was
loud on in favor of low non-rotatable wires on the other bands.
Hope to find the time to do a writeup in the next ten days. Experience
tells me that if I don't do it by 10 days after the contest, it won't
happen!
