You were very solid copy here but not moving my S meter. I had the best 
signals at about 120 deg. I'm running 140w to a 14 el KLM and GasFet in 
the RF Concepts brick. I could not hear the beacon at Ken's cabin. Very 
windy here 50 MPH plus and had trouble keeping the antenna aimed near 
the east.
