Comments:
Had fun in my first CW contest and also my first time ever on 160!
I did not plan on entering, but I tried to load up the G5RV with a tuner
after hearing an AZ station above my ten over noise level. I was amazed
that the tuner found a match, and astounded that my signal made it to AZ!
Played around for almost four hours until the wife woke up at sunrise and
scolded me for not having come to bed.
Rig: Omni VI+ about 90 watts
Ant: 80 Meter G5RV up 30ft in trees, with MFJ-993 auto tuner
