G'day Topbanders,
Last night 5K0T was not on 160: the inv L broke (again) in
the 60 kts (100 km/hr +) winds. Will try to fix it today
if the weather lets up: continous heavy rain and hight
winds for the past 5 days.
Often QRN is very high from the numerous thunderstorms
around. We are also experiencing strong rain static S9+),
sometimes on for hours. Built a pennant that should help
tonight (if we get the inv L fixed).
By the way, for those who sent in reprots of the 5K0T
signal: we used 700 watts and a 18m tall inv L standing in
salt water. No radials.
HPE to CU on the band,
George
