[Elecraft] 160 m contest

[Roger Stein]

Hi Dan,
 Managed to work 8 CO stations, but you were not among tham :-(.
Overall it was a fun contest, managed to make 187 contacts, 42 states, 3
'DX'! Lou's, KE4UYP, dual-polarity antenna had a lot to do with it!

Worked 31 stations in 15 states and VE5 with my FT-817 and "special" 160m  
antenna. I feed the center conductor of my coax feedline from basement to
attic  
tuned with my ATU. Guess I need to install the 160m option in my K2. I did  
notice that the FT-817 roofing filter will not eliminate intermods from my 
local  160m neighbors. The K2 should do much better. I also got 5NNs on all 
contacts  but I bet I was 219 on most of them.
