Soapbox: Lost some time at the beginning - thought I blew the Alpha 78.
Turns out I somehow hit the autotune button on the 950 which killed
the output of the exciter - oops! There was no coax available for
the eighty meter antenna, so I spent the last hour scouring 40 for
people I hadn't worked. Next time hope to be ready with 3 bands,
computer logging, and possibly two radios. Thanks to Yin, N9YS and
Dave, N7UE for making the Caltech station available. Cu all in
February - 73 de Mike, W4EF/6........
This is to certify that in the contest I have operated my transmitter within
the limitations of my license and have observed fully the rules and
regulations of the contest.
