Thanks, Pat.

80m and 160m are a "pipe dream" with my compromised antenna configurations.  I can do better on 80m than 160m for sure.  Of course 6m is the magic band for sure.  When it's open, the world is at your doorstep.

Now if I had 10 acres, I can see directional arrays for 160m to begin with.  If I could just have gotten one of our massive rombics out of Vietnam and back to Arkansas, I would be set.  Actually, for a few days I was using one of those 50Kw beasts to run Navy MARS phone patches when another operator max tuned our Henry 4K using SWR.  It was fried.  A quick call to the transmitter site and some phone line patching got me a ~5Kw out of a transmitter and massive LPA at 75' while waiting on a new Henry.

George, WB5JJJ, has provided updated DXCC Standings information.  He has been busy taking advantage of higher SSNs and added 25 to his Desoto Challenge total.  George is up to 1300 now and has set his sights on 1350 or 1400.  George added nine new ones on 10M and the rest scattered between 20 and 12M.

 

With a few more on 80M and 10M you’ll have 5BDXCC George.  Nice going OM!

 

73,
