Glad to have recovered from flu-like symptoms in time to operate this weekend.

Operating phone with a scratchy throat is the pits where phone Q's have the same
weight value as CW Qs. I was amazed that every phone operator was able to
understand my weak and sometimes semi-slurry speech.

Operating was further challenged with chest decongestant and cough suppressant
medication in my system. Hearing was affected the most by swollen glands. I
still had to increase the volume level significantly even while wearing a
headset.

Happy New Year to all!


Yaesu FT-817 QRP transceiver. 5 watts into a 5-MHz OCF 28-gauge insulated wire
stealth antenna up 40 feet in trees next to I-75 in downtown Atlanta industrial
area. SGC SG-237 autotuner. Heil Pro-Set Plus headset. WriteLog 10.44b.

--Matt, WB6BWZ
