Comments:
Not one of my better scores.
But it is fun to drive the callsign NA1QP around for 10 hours.
My hat is off to my fellow YCCC team members in YCCC Yankee Clipper 1, Clipper 2
and The Green Mountain Boys. Lots of very good scores were produced.
I lost quite a number of needed Q's by not going to 40 meters earlier. 40 has
always been a big producer for me and I simply got there too late to help my
score. No more dinner breaks at 1800-2000 local, straight thru 10 hour operating
from now on.
This was my first NAQP with my new T10 log periodic and I do not know if it is a
step up or down from the old classic 33. More operating will tell. I just didn't
feel LOUD on it. It is possible that I have just squeezed as much performance as
I can from a 43 foot tower installation.
He is my ant farm:
160 dipole @ 40'
160 inverted L 40' vertical X 35 radials
80 dipole @ 40'
40 dipole @ 45'
20- 10 T10 10 element log periodic @ 43'
ANT FARM PROJECTS 2004
40 meter 4 square with elevated verticals, bases elevated 24' above ground.
80 meter inverted L 50' vertical x 35 radials
160 meter inverted L lengthened to 50' vertical and caged for bandwidth
Installation of AB-577 military tower
CU in the pileups
