   wow what a place this would be for a serio   

   
   The  reason  it  is so good is it is easy dis   day  on  20  meters to US....Japan....or Australia.&nb   and  Japan   are  on a different continent from me (O   get  the  max  points  3.   To  compare that if you are in a   location  in the Caribbean...US is only worth 1 point each and Jap   (most  hams)  is not an easy haul. .  I also experimented with 40 met   ers  and  got  20  over S9 reports from USA using a G5RV.  I also made
   sev   a desire    
   
   I  already  have  some  ideas  for  next  year.&n   replacing  the  TH7DXX  with  a  new  TH11DXX.   Then addin   element 40 meter beam.  Then maybe a large 80 meter loop poi   the  ocean  front  toward stateside.  The good thing is I have t   here already.  They are in a storage container.  CQ also imp   a  new  class  for  2  transmitter  multi  op  stations.  I have the    equipment  here  for  that  and  I  think  it would be easy to set the
   standard (r   

   
   I hammed   a lot this weekend....   hours  at  the  ham  shack.   I  sp   pouncing    and  occasionally  call   moderate contesting late....manly because   on  15 meters and worked 509 stations   I  was  by myself and a bit rusty with    V73  really boosts the ego, too.  I had g   of  the  contest  to  compliment me on the operatio   things  to  gain  some  good  will.  I had to resort   zones  or numbers and PJ2E called while I was asking for 7   him  that  I  was  working  7s and DX would be in a few minutes.   argued  and  I told him that his contact to me was no more importan   than  the  7's  that  were  waiting  and  he  was wasting his valuable
   contesting   I was not l   the statesid   
   
   Anyway...not  a  serious contesting effort b   same.   I  worked  1100+  contacts on 80, 40, 20,   (800+)  +  18 KH6s, 9 KL7s, 4 KH2s, and 3 KH0s.&nbs   of  Europe  and  all  the  Japan  I  wanted...HIHI.   I was    disaapointed  that I did not hear much Africa and Middle East, but    am  sure that would be there if I had stayed more time.  Total DX ent   ities worked were 75.
   

   
   So anybody interested in a 10 day stay at    know.
