Worked VP5/K9UR at 0254Z with a -14/+08 exchange.  Thanks for last band except 160M!

I'll be on 30 late. I took down the 40 mtr sloper to put up the 30 mtr. It broke but I brought the solder iron with me so was able to fix it. It's very low but seems to radiate pretty good. Working europe.

Thanks. I'm at the NCAARS meeting and then Brick Oven Pizza.  Hopefully we'll catch you again.

I brought a 30 mtr dipole with me and will put it up but have to take the 40 mtr sloper down that I put up today. It's low to the ground, like one end 6 inches off the ground coming from maybe 20 ft up. It may a couple of days before I take it down and put the 30 up. I may try the 40 with the tuner and see if that works on 30. 

73,

Rick:
Fun working you on 20M and just now 40M.  Put out the word on the ADXA Reflector when you have an antenna that will tune 30M.  I've missed only that band, and 160M, over the years.
Thanks and enjoy your "vacation"!
