2005 ARRL June VHF Contest

06/15/2005 | W9ZB I put up the whole antenna installation just before the contest, including an "Arrow" UHF (using a mount made from part of an old aluminum snow shovel). Everything worked flawlessly until the rotator stopped working after a few hours. It took a couple of hours looking in the rain for the problem, but finally saw where a rabbit chewed through my rotator control cable. So I didn't make a big score, but was thrilled to work the aurora, expecially on CW, where the signals sounded like spark. -- W9ZB
