Started 15 min late fixing autoexec.bat in Randy's machine (my fault
from CQP)
Did OK, but missed 80 M. Somehow, the delta loop became a 6:1 swr load
without
anybody noticing until it was needed.
Sounds like we should do a better job of preparation next year.
Got home at 0730 Z and turned the TV to ESPN 1. I guess they were
having some
kinda troubles because the only audio on was CW. It decoded to WQN3
then a
bunch of 3 numeral groups and then ESPN. Just what I needed to hear
after 500
Q's was 25 wpm cw on my tv!
I see that NCCC is following RCC's lead in M/S operation as way to
increase
club scores. Unfortunatly, they seemed to have done a better job than
K6RCC
did. My hat is off to you guys.
Eric, K6GV
