WB8WUASINGLE-OP LOWDid not do very well due to my short dipole antenna length - so, good that I had my MJF Antenna T-tuner. I DID manage to actually contact Florida (N2) - NICE. Thanks for the good 160M PH opportunity.

WQ6XASSISTED HIGHThis was another last-minute WQ6X remote operation from NX6T in Fallbrook. I ran NX6T's STN-1 around 1350 watts on average into a cheesy coaxial inverted VEE, about 13mh nothing fancy, just enough to play around. While the noise-level hovered around S-9,
