Equipment: Icom IC-746 connected to 5-element 6m yagi and 4-element 2m cubic
quad beam antennas; Yaesu FT-5100 connected to 11-element 70cm cubic beam
antenna; TYT TH-9800 connected to Diamond X50A 2m/70cm vertical antenna; Alinco
1.25m HT with stock antenna; Kenwood TK-981 connected to 9-element 33cm yagi
antenna. Winter storm IZZY made operating difficult. 1.25m HT froze overnight
before the contest and never came to life. Nothing heard on 33cm. Very little Es
seen on 6m or 2m. Hand rotating two portable masts worked well until the wind
came up and made azimuth uncontrollable. Had to relocate 100 meters from
original location to find shelter from the wind but could not safely move any of
the beam antennas. Finished the contest using only the vertical antenna. Will
live to contest another day!
