I had problems with my radio this weekend and was able to get on 160 only after sunrise. I'd planned on taking part throughout the contest but that little wrench sidelined me. But Eddy, I did manage to work you! :)
Instead of firing up the Alpha I went barefoot at 70 watts and was able to work almost everyone I heard. Exception was a 7 and a 5 who couldn't hear me. No DX could I hear other than my Neighbors to the North.
