A very interesting weekend -- and pretty tough on the Gator.  First time with a 
voice keyer and two radios on phone. The 2-radio box K5KA built for me worked 
great.  Thanks, Ken.

It was very hard to generate any rate anywhere.  I was "fresh meat" on 10M 
Sunday, and only had two hours over 70.  In the past, I could generally count 
on 100+ hours all day on Sunday on 10M.   Condx sounded good, but activity 
seemed to be down. I never really felt loud on any band - maybe the old 
tribanders are worn out!!

Had 79 sections before I left 15M Saturday evening, and K0GAS checked in from 
CO on 20M for #80 at 0306Z. Thank You Connie!! Earliest sweep ever!  Last 4 
sections for sweep were NNY, VE5, KS & CO. Worked 3-KP4's and at least four in 
every other section.

Rigs:  a pair of TS850's, AL1200 & Alpha 99. 3 tribanders & dipoles on 40/80.

Congrats to K5TR who did an outstanding job from his VFB station to take the 
division.  Ya'll watch out for this guy!!

And THANK YOU to everyone for the QSO's.

Happy Holidays to all.

73,  Gator
