First I want to thank Jeff, KU8E for salvaging my NA log. I don't know what I
did, but Jeff took the .gdf file and made it all OK. Thanks to John, K4BAI as
well for his help.
This was a portable operation from my mountain home in Sautee, GA. All
antennas went up Sat morning. We have a rear deck ( 40' long and 27' high )
that hangs out over a FAST slopping 1000' drop. The 40 meter dipole is
basically a 1/4 wave dipole that is in the shape of an inverted U. It is nailed
to the top rail of the deck with the two ends nailed to the 27' supporting
poles. This thing worked like a bomb as you can see 40 was a great band for
me! I missed only 2 states ( HI & MS ). I see that K4EA missed only LA & ME.
I must have worked a half dozen ME and several LA. I guess it is the luck of
where you are when.
It was a lot of FUN. Thanks to all who worked hard to make it happen.
