Hi Al!

01 Nov 2016 06:56, from Al Kaiser -> Richard Menedetter:

 RM>> Anybody participated in the CQ WW DX contest last weekend?
 RM>> Maybe we even had contact???
 AK> Becase my 3 Element SteppIR is down for repair I worked the club
 AK> station W1NRG Saturday and Sunday.  We ran Multi two with a run
 AK> station and also had a multi station on the air.  About 10 operators
 AK> participated.

We were here:

There is a maintenance building on the foot of the tower.
We were multiop with 4 operators.

 AK> Hope to have the SteppIR up for the WAE RTTY contest the second
 AK> weekend in November.  Also putting an MFJ-1775 dipole on the tower at
 AK> the top at about 65 feet.  May give me 40 meters for the first time in
 AK> many years and my first actual tuned 40 meter antenna.

Colleague had the idea to build a 160m dipole at 3 o clock in the night.
Actually worked nicely!

CU, Ricsi
