Hi All -
 
I guess putting up the antennas at 20 & 25 feet wasn't the answer I was  
looking for.  I had to look through the house to look north and that wasn't  
good.  
 
6M seemed to hear OK and I got out pretty well with only 10 watts.  I  
didn't think 2M was hearing well so not sure if it was the feedline, amp,  
antenna, rig (or me)!  I need to do some further investigation.
 
I hung in there until about 11 am.  It was sunny outside and I didn't  want 
to be inside all day.  I got to spend time outside and even got out to  the 
new harry Potter flick with the family.
 
It was great to talk with everyone and catch up on news.  I also got a  
good sense of who will be active in a few weeks for the UHF Contest.
 
My totals were about 80 Q's and about 4,500 points.  Lots of  fun!
