Comments: Yet another great battle between me and N6RT. Its nice to be on
the winning side of these close battles for a change. For those wondering
how we do so well from CA, Doug and I use very special stations. W6EEN has
40 acres in Indio and has stacks on 10-20 (I think), 4 el 40m, and 3 el 80m
antennas. He is in the city, so he has moderate line noise. W6KP has 36
acres in Anza (which is where W6CCP and W6BH are located) and is on top of a
a mountain at about 4600 feet. He has a clear shot to JA and EU. His
antenna's are 6 el KLM's on 10-20, 4 el 40m yagi, and 67 ft vertical on 80m.
There are no neighbors near his QTH, and his powerlines are underground, so
there is absolutely no noise up there. So what Doug gains with the stacks, I
make up with the ability to copy another layer of weak EU sigs. I got off to
a great start, the first 4 hours were 125-118-114-138, but it was all
downhill from there.
