October 24, 2002: Station # 2 set up and ready to start CQWW SSB in Multi/2. The linear is the Alpha 76 donated by WI9WI. October 24, 2002: Here is the new US/JA monobander in its temporary location 30 feet up on the Eur tower. It was put here because the heavy rain on Thursday prevented installing it where it should have been on the US/JA tower. It's fed with a long coax pigtail from the 15 meter stackbox on the US/JA tower. this antenna played very well in the contest!
