This was by far THE best SS CW I have ever done working 975 x 80 in 20 or so hours. The rate for the first 3 1/2 hrs on 20M was increadible. The effort spent to install a 3 element monobander at 40 feet during the 4 days just previous to contest were well worth it. I was able to hold a freq at will for the first time from my home station since this antenna was last up back in the 1990's.
