Started just to play short time as the antennas are in needed repair. 
160 is down, 80 water in balun, replaced but still issues, 40 feed point 
connector broken, fixed, 20-10 Skyhawk worked well but swr up on 20 
meters and yagi is stuck on EU with bad rotor. Fairly good conditions on 
Saturday, Sunday was down a bit but for the bottom of the sunspot cycle 
I'll take it. I lost quite a few mults when the high bands shifted south 
and not having 160/80 hurt. Still a lot of fun and haven't spent time in 
a contest since ARRL DX SSB from J68. Going to try and get 160 working 
this week with the warmer weather. Happy Thanksgiving!!
