CW contest starts tomorrow 0000 UTC. Who's is playing? There will be tons of activity and chance to try out your 160 meter antennas. I have an inverted L (about 70 feet vertical) and this week I put down about 16 radials, each 35 feet long. No room for a good Beverage antenna for 160.

This is a really good contest and very very family friendly. Best operating time is when the kids are asleep and you can rack up tons of QSOs between 9 pm and 3 am your time.

Hope to see you on.

If all goes well I'll have an inverted L up tomorrow after work. #Poor WX for last week has kept me from getting things together #http://www.qrz.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif

My inverted L won't be anything special, but atleast something to work some new states and maybe a few new DXCC.
