[CTSARA] CTSARA Digest, Vol 111, Issue 21

[Emileigh Starbrook]

I should second Jon's post, and say that if 10M is open it is a joy.  I had
about 30 QSOs last weekend into Europe, South America, North America and
Africa.  I did all of that with just a dipole.  For the investment of about
5$ (15 feet of wire and a SO-239 connector) you can go a long way.  Even if
you live in an apartment or townhouse, you can just stick it off a balcony!

Cheers,

Emily N1DID
