I Have an inv V hanging off of my 70 foot tower. Because I live on a
suburb lot the legs of the antenna are bent to fit the lot (really ugly). I
have worked DXCC (119) with that minimal antenna. It can be done but you
have to be patient.

Want to know what the ARRL position is. Look at page 8 of February QST
opposite K1ZZ's 'It seems to us'.

Paul,
Copngratulations! I have the same memory of opening that envelope after
school 18 years later. I received the novice call KN2PRJ in September 1955.
This is my 60th year doing the radio thing.
Good luck,

Don,
Me too, also I hope whoever it is has a great receive antenna and the condx
are excellent. I have been waiting for an AK QSO on 160 for several years.
Have never even heard any here in upstate NY on my contorted inv V.
Good luck to both of us,

My 160 antenna was built after the SP was started several years ago. Does
that count?

Okay - so y

am sure some of the engineers out there will say the eyebolt method is bad
design, but it works!!

Anyone know if the ferrite beads that are encased on the cables of older CRT
monitors are any good for use in the shack.
This has probably been asked before but I can not find any info.
Thanks ,

Folks,
Thanks to all those who gave me a call/QSO this weekend. I apologize to
those that I could not hear from my suburban lot (very noisy and only a
distorted inv "V").
What is the 'official' rule for the 1830-1835 segment. There were a lot of
big stations using it for
I received a '3Y0IOF' QSL card for each band and mode for the up coming
DXpedition. The instructions say "when I first hear them on any band/mode
(optional) just fill in the time."
Boy!! This sure beats having to suffer through several days of cops and
tuner uppers.

the
22nd or 23rd to see if they have honored my requests.

d it for several years and and it works great. It is easier for an
old guy to hit one key rather than two keys together late in a contest.

Yes, 8 QSLs out of 10 QSOs including 160. Put me over the top for 160
DXCC.

Unless you have a large area to build massive 160 meter antennas you will
probably not have that same feeling again but every 160 QSO will feel very
close to that.
Congrats
