Call: W2LC
Operator(s): W2LC
Station: W2LC

Class: Single Op LP
QTH: WNY
Operating Time (hrs): 28

Summary:
Total:  QSOs = 916  Sections = 68  Countries = 9  Total Score = 140,063

Club: Rochester (NY) DX Assn

Comments:

Antenna:  Shunt fed 80 ft tower with 30 - 100ft long ground mounted radials.  
Beverages:  NE, East and NW  all  350-450 feet.  They work very well for being
short.
Radio:  TS-930S

A personal best for me all the way around, most QSOs, most mults and highest
score.

Missed a lot of sections, but I worked all that I heard.  Got rid of the
elevated radials and dropped the radials to the ground and lowered the feed
point.  I added a few radials too.  I think the ground mounted radials instead
of elevated and the lower feed point made the antenna work much much better.
