I completed my 2-meter WAC by working VK5MC on December 3, 1982. Chris was using 
a rhombic, IIRC, 50 wavelengths on a leg and more-or-less fixed on his rising 
moon.  I believe with some ropes he could "steer" one end to get a few minutes 
more on another couple of days a month of use.  Otherwise it was a pretty short 
window.  Modern Yagi designs blow these away.
