Gary,

That was great for 5 watts.  I went into it, not to get a great score or QSO 
total, but to see how many states I could work and try to get some new ones. 
Got 44 states, 51 mults, and 113 QSO's.  Only DX was PJ2T.


100 watts, shortened (124 ft.) sloping dipole, most of which is less than 30 
feet high and with 15 feet hanging straight down from 1 end to fit the lot.

Wish I had    better antennas for 160, but  a lot of guys think that you 
can't get on the band unless you have a lot of  ground.

Look for you on the air.
