[OKDXA] What's Not To Like

[William B. Stacy]

Hi, All:

I did work DXCC with a couple of metal sticks in/on the ground (R8 and 80M
vertical).  With only sporadic operation, I worked 112 entities so far in
the contest.

Of course, Murphy came to visit.  My K3 is back in Aptos for upgrades, and
the TX on my backup rig quit after a few hours.  The venerable C-Line and
the old IC-740 became the workhorses.

Enjoy!

73, Bill, N5TU

HV0A - Good one.  I forgot to mention TX4T and 5W0OU during the 40 meter 
stint.  Had the 2 el pointed at the pole!  I think you could work DXCC with 
a metal stick in the ground.  Great conditions after a number of rather 
drab years.
