The ARRL ROBOT swallowed our log,
chicken manure and all,
at around 4 a.m. local time.
An apartment in the exclusive JA community
is always the goal in the 160 cw contests.
I went shopping early and could not find
even a one bed room walk up without
having to deal with mean neighbors,
so I spent most of the second night
in the poor mans village, around
1.845 and up, I mean really UP.
Around 2 a.m. local time I decided to
revisit the Ja complex. Much to my
surprise I went in the front gate
and found myself with a high end
apartment with picture window.
Unfortunately I failed to read
the small print in the lease.
Major item, I was obligated
to stay awake.
Marlene and I give serious thought
trying to stay ahead of old age,
but deep into the second night
I was mentally and physically
washed out.
I gave up my lease on the beautiful
location, sent in my log, and went
to bed before window opened to JA.
This morning, much to my surprise,
the scores seem to indicate
that living above DX window
ain't so bad after all.
Like every one else,
I am curious to see what
happens to the log when
it goes through the ROBOT's
digestive system.
The number of DUPES may be an
indication I have serious
keying problems with the
'dits' on the "D".
