Krassy, you busted a call. K2KW (me) was not operational in the ARRL 160
contest. The only antenna I have is a 20m inverted-V up 12' on my wife's
feather duster. The coax arcs to ground when I try and tune it on 160m with
100w. This is "good feather duster hardware" (and my wife wants it back), but
does not qualify as good hardware in anyone's book.
When I operate at a guest station, or on a DXpedition, I hold myself to the
highest operating standards.
So if you are going to publicly trash someone, please get your information
correct.
