Comments:

It was field day because as of Thursday morning before the contest,
there were NO ANTENNA in the air.  By Thursday nite, the 3 stack
on 15M was up, as well as the Cushcraft 2el 40.  Friday we put up the
20M 3 stack, the 10M 3 stack, and wires for 80 and 160.  Unfortunately
both the 10M and 15M stack had a problem.  We were able to fix the
15M stack, but we were crippled on the 10M stack.  We could only use
one of the antennas in the 10M stack.  Technically speaking, between
Thursday and Friday, 13 yagis went up, although only 8 were used.

Possibly a new W4 M/S record (which was set last year by K4ISV).

Ops were K9JY, K9GY, WE9V, K4JA and W4JVN.

10M:  7el 48' boom, 70' on a 110' tower, soon to be 7/7/7
15M:  6/6/6 48' boom on 150' tower
20M:  6/6/6 48' boom on 150' tower
40M:  Cushcraft XM-240 at 100' on 140' mult tower
      (Planned 4/4 on 180' tower soon!)
80M:  K8UR style vertical dipole (4 sqaure by spring?)
160M: K8UR style vertical dipole (4 square by spring/summer?)

Four FT-1000MP's
Two Acom amps (they are beautiful and work even better!!)
Command HF-2500    (20M)
Ameritron AL-1500  (40M)

          160      80       40       20       15       10     CUM TOT  
DAY1    13/17    57/70   97/105  782/161  398/162  919/178    2266/693
DAY2    14/20    14/18    51/17   403/27   568/24   162/15    1212/121
TOT     27/37    71/88  148/122 1185/188  966/186 1081/193    3478/814

As others mentioned, Day 2 wasn't the greatest.  919 QSOs on 10M day1,
while only 162 on day2!!  Fortunately 15 and 20M wasn't too bad and
we did the usual 50% QSOs on day 2.
