[KCDXC] The Stew

[Alex Tkatch]

 I did not get points total out of WL yet-shows 0
points. Made 457Q and had bunch of power line noise,
sometime very bad. I guess low humidity and wind
revealed some hidden problems. 
 Was listening to Charlie's CQ once and I think he had
more of the noise than I had... Still don't have any
receiving antennas-have tried to use disconnected
el.fence-helped with noise but had very very low
output.  Made few new countries. Will let know about
the points later.
