|---|---|---|
| ND8D | SINGLE-OP LOW | Inverted Vee, 40' a the peak, 10' at the ends. |
| ND8DX | SINGLE-OP HIGH | Well we all complained about conditions last year...HA !! Guess last years condition weren't that bad after all. The highlights of this year's effort was being the FIRST 160M QSO ever for two OP's. I hope they got "hooked" on 160 and contesting. Hopefully they end up in all our logs in the future. |
| NF8M | SINGLE-OP LOW | Inverted-L, apex at 35 feet. |
| NN5T | SINGLE-OP LOW | Great Butternut vertical but pretty much no force in SSB at weak condition |
| NO9E | ASSISTED HIGH | This is the first 160m contest with 4 sq. Bent wires to 120' tower and 8 80 ft radials. Much better than my 100'shunt-fed tower. Many DX called., and some EU were worked on the first try. Never happened with shunt fed tower. It seems that a requirement of 32 1/4 wave radials is a myth. Limited participation compared to last years. Locally heavy powerline noise. Still managed a few EU and KH6. |
| NS3X | SINGLE-OP HIGH | Thank you for a very enjoyable contest. The band was very quiet, and it was my pleasure to work so many fine stations. FTdX-9000MP (200w) w/Heil PR-781 es W2IHY EQ es inverted vee fed at 65-feet. |

| SA4UNA | SINGLE-OP LOW | First time joining the CQWW 160M SSB contest,i'm using an Icom IC-7300 with a homemade endfed halfwave 160m antenna hanging between the house, flagpole and a dead tree that I stuck in the snow down the farmland and a homemade 49:1 unun without a 100pF capacitor. The RF at higher power output than 45W made my router and heatpump shut off so I was limited to max 45W. |
