88' shunt-fed, top-loaded tower with 6 quarter wave radials
Soapbox:
This was a very tough contest as the rate kept dropping suddenly like a lead
zepplin. QSB was both constant and highly variable the whole weekend!
Best moment was working VP6BR with 5 watts for a new band country. Worst hours
were listening to V73CW booming in and not being able to work him (I bet he was
more frustrated though). No JA's or Caribbean stations worked here this year.
Thanks to the patient folks out there on top band.
