Guys and Gals in contesting,
The RAC winter contest had to turn out "A" ok when the field day tower was
put up in a raging blizzard in true hamm fashion. Michael would agree that it
had to be a winner; he was there with me. Up went the tribander and the 40
sloping dipole and we ended up looking like polar bears. Pounding in the guy
anchors was an experience in itself, but it was a necessary part of the jolly
effort that turned out to be a real fun for all. In addition, the new club
tower and the Bencher tribander turned the frowns to smiles as the log kept
rolling.
the ops were::: Michael VE6TC, Bill VE6WSI, Larry VE6KC, VE6MBA John returning
to contesting after many years off, VE6IC Greg, cw man, moral support and club
photographer; and last but not least VE6EX Dan.(thats me)
the rigs were::: The club FT1000 and Henry 2k, The trusty Icom 735 and fl2100,
a borrowed TS690 and AL80 (ic706 for the vhf end of things), And last but not
least the TS940s/TL922 portable effort of yours truly.
The logging effort was less than trusty, and certainly was NOT ***TRLOG***.
The usual glitches ran rampant, Murphy had a heyday, but Michael(Mike) saved
the day every time; so the end came with full success.
