First night conditions where not good towards the US...just a couple could be
logged. Carribean however produced good signals, PJ2T, 6Y3M, KV4FZ, ZF2KE.
Nice runs with EU stations till 0830z. Returned saturday late afternoon...the
rate going up till a big storm hit the country.
When having aabreak I checked SWR and it turned out to be very bad.
Looked outside the shack and saw the vertical had collapsed, tip stood in the
ground(see: www.sitekreator.com/pa3gvi -> weblog 2014). This was the end
of the contest for me...returned sunday to clear the site ...3 sections where
bend heavily...glad we have spare parts,hi.
