MOST EAST COAST AND MID WEST STATIONS WEAK AS WATER HERE...AGAIN DISTRACTED BY
BRITISH FOOTBALL ON THE TELLY ON SAT. AND SUN....MY VERTICAL 80 METER LOOP HAD
THE VERTICAL WIRES ENTANGLED WITH TREE BRANCHES DUE TO THE STORM WE HAD, AND
THE LOWER WIRE WAS NEAR THE GROUND RESTING ON SOME BRUSH....WONDER HOW MUCH
RF THEY ABSORBED? COULD ONLY LOAD UP TO AROUND 50W MAX..VERY HAPPY TO HAVE
BEEN ABLE TO PUNCH THROUGH SOME W6 AND W7 NEAR CONTEST END TO GET UA0DC...
ALSO PLEASED TO HAVE WORKED PJ2, KV4, KH6, KL7 AND JA CONSIDERING ANT
PROBLEM..
AMAZING THE DIFFERENCE A FEW MILES IN QTH LOCATION MAKE...TAKE A LOOK AT
VE7SL SCORE, WHO LIVES ABOUT 15 MILES FROM HERE....HIS SCORE TWICE MINE FOR
THE
SAME TIME ON THE AIR...NEVER HEARD A SINGLE ZL OR VK STATION...LOCAL NOISE NOT
AS BAD AS IT USUALLY IS, MUST HAVE BEEN ALL THE SNOW ON THE POWER LINES, ETC.,
KEEPING THEM "COOL"...
