Today, Randy QV, John BXQ and Rich EHG all came with em to FMC.

We traded out the RG-59 on the Vertical for RG-11   --- Now we can run full power with the Butternut Vertical

We put up a 3 element Wilson Tribander (10-15-20 Meters) on one tower leg of the short tower and aimed it towards Bouvet ! 

Just in time for them to cancel the DX-pedition because of problems.  

Thank you to those who helped. 

Randy is going to re-orient the tribander towards EU or about 90 degrees, where it hits the tower leg.  From there we will at least be able to keep operating until the roofing work is done and we can get the WF and TH-11 up on the mast with the rotator.
