Comments:
Insanity - 100 watts into a short vertical on 160m with SSB. I turned on the
radio, joined in the fun. My antenna even with rig's tuner only has about 50
kHz useful bandwidth - and that last 10 kHz is dicey. Got on second night,
worked nearly everyone operating in this span. Found a hole and got a brief
run, likely spotted by someone -which worked until I got crowded out. I may
try this again next year, but anticipate I'll major on CW for top band. But
operating voice near AM band is a real hoot, even if my score is close to zero.
