regrettably, WAE cw was a flop for me. that band of thunderstorms across ALL

the appalachian mountains wiped out everything except the north east USA


stations, who seemed to be working EU easily, as they always do...







what a drag. even a directional receiving ant. is no help when the noise and 


desired signals are coming from the same direction...






maybe WAE phone will be better...

WAE cw is a great time to test low band antennas, for the upcoming contest 

season... 






the QTC's are a bit quirky though...
