     Comments:  What started out as a multi-multi Lakeland ARC club
event turned
                        into a single-op assisted effort.  We set up at our 
field day
                        location in Lakeland.  First the club TS-940 decided to 
stop\
                        sending anything.  AFter another radio was located, we 
figured
                        out that the electric sub-station and all the high 
voltage
                        power lines caused a VERY loud noise...on all bands. 
Even with
                        the noise blanker, only the strongest stations could be 
heard.
                        So after about 3 hours, we closed up shop.  Glad we 
found this
                        out before June!

                        I operated from home part time Sunday.  Just about all 
cw, except for
a few
                        10m ssb contacts.  Conditions not the best, but could 
have been worse
                        I suppose.  

                        Lots of activity.  I saw lots of internet packet spots 
for FL
stations. 
                        
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
     I have observed all competition rules as well as all regulations
for
     amateur radio  in my country.  My report  is correct and true to
the
     best of my knowledge.  I agree  to be bound by  the decisions of
the
     contest committee.
