Well, this was interesting? QRN was pretty bad and I lost use of the antenna when the SWR went sky high.? A few amps of 120 VAC took care of the icing on the wire.? It didn't help to schedule my turn as a Fox during a snowstorm.? To the folks who live in the South like me; it's more like a blizzard only a couple of inches but snow nevertheless.? Ops who have a dipole can't do what I did with my loop to shed the ice in a matter of a couple of minutes at 0255z. I was lucky to make the number of QSO under these trying conditions.? I am just sorry that I couldn't hand out more pelts.
Please let me know if there are any issues with the log and thanks for your patience.
