HC03: Continent chasing, a tale.
Goal: Work another continent on 80m this week. A dubious inverted L antenna is fiddled together using a crappy 7.5m fishing rod plus a too short 12 meters of wire. The ground is a copper pipe unceremoniously jammed into the damp soil. A single radial is connected just to add a touch of class. The result? Resonance lands way off at 4.1 MHz. With some base loading wizardry and prayer, I manage to drag the frequency down to 80m. @hamchallenge #hamchallenge 1/7
