It is always with great reluctance that I coil up my radials and put
them in the
garage when the "season" is over. Even though I have no choice, I hate
being
a "fair weather friend" to Top Band.
It is also with humility that I work stations in the Southern Hemisphere
during the long nights of Winter here. During the 2009 SP TBDC,
I managed to work ZL3IX. Even though it was his Summer Solstice,
I think he was copying me a bit better than I was copying him!
