Fellow Contesters,

Originally there should have been three operators, but NI7T couldn't make
the trip, so
KH6WZ alias 8 - Papa - 9 - Banks Beer and 8P6SH manned the two radios to try
and erase the old 8P Multi-multi record of about 1.2 Million... set in 1988
at 8P6BBS.

So it wasn't a huge effort, nor a huge score, but we achieved the objectives
of a reunion
a great fish dinner the day after the contest, and we scored more than any
other M/M
ever in 8P. AND we had fun doing it.
