2002 ARRL International DX Contest (CW)

K0BJ -- Feb 18, 2002 09:46 ET

20 acres, and only a tribander, 80M dipole and 160 inv L.....

Real nice condx, but 20 was fritzy. It was interesting how good 10/15 AND 160 were. With an inv. L for tx and rx, I sometimes struggle hard to log JA on 160, and they were armchair this time. For SS and general operating, my 80M dipole tuned for 40 seems to work ok, but while I heard alot of EU in this contest on 40, I couldn't log 'em. I came up a little short of my on-the-fly 1M point goal. Gotta either put up better low-band antennas, fix the SB-220, or stop going to church choir and concerts on Sunday! 73 Bruce -- K0BJ
