Thanks Mal.

I will be there. I have removed the HF wires and once again have my
full 5 watts EIRP.

Will you be transmitting first or second? I will also CQ during the
2300-0100 time frame but will avoid using the same period as you so
we can find each other.

Let's get some trans-Atlantic QSOs made tonight !

This allowed me to run MF but I was initially down about 2 dB on power because the antenna resistance has increased significantly. Things got worse during the night for reasons not yet known. Maybe ice.
