| I think this was my 1st NAQP contest, 
interesting to have a contest end at 
6:00Z/2AM EST but there were quite a few 
stations available though I heard no long 
distance DX, some NA DX wer3e heard in CT 
though. Still, the CW portion was quite 
full almost to the end. I was unable to 
dedicate real time to this but it was fun.
Nice to hear 160 signals in mid-summer. 
100W worked about everything I heard. Have 
a feeling something has gotten into the Rx 
antenna system. A month ago it looked to 
be a deer had laid an element of the HI-Z 
8 flat to the ground.
Critters... Vermin...
