Comments:
I had a great time working with the great high band conditions here in Zone 3.
Working mostly 10 meters switching between half-square and delta loop wire
antennas strung up between trees, house, and paint pole on small So Cal lot.
Also have vertical and inv-L 0n 20/40 meters. Could hear most stations very
well but it was frustrating that many could not hear me, even when running 500+
watts. Pileups and adjacent QRM probably a factor but was really nice when 10
meters started stretching up to 29 MHz and I could work even the weaker
stations in the clear. Thanks to all the great operators out there who had the
patience to pull me out of the QRN/QRM. I'll need to work on antenna
improvements for next time! I would have preferred to also work the CQWW DX CW
test but a family trip this year will pre-empt that.
