Update on our trip to Saint Barthelemy - We made a total of 12,766 QSO's in a little less than 6 days operating time. 402 QSO's were made on SSB, 363 QSO's were made on RTTY, all the rest were on CW. 19 QSO's were made on 6 meters with a barefoot radio and a 3 element yagi on a ladder up about 10 feet. We had a Hexbeam for 10-20 meters which performed great, a SVDA vertical for 17 meters, and various wire verticals and dipoles for the other bands. Two radios were used, each with 500 watt amps. We stayed at a villa on a hilltop in the Colombier area of St. Barths. Saint Barthelemy is a very picturesque French island, with narrow winding mountain roads and beautiful scenery. We enjoyed our time there very much. Thanks to everyone for all the QSO's. Also thanks to my son Erik, N5WR, for sharing this adventure with me. We will be ordering QSL cards from UX5UO. It will be a few weeks before we have cards and can begin the QSLing. Hpe to CU from the next one. 73. Jeff - K5WE
