FINAL SCORE 97844
Discovered Friday night that the mobile was putting out a pile-up busting 10
watts. Plan B--put the FT-990 in the truck and go. oops no DC plug
Plan C-stick two wires in back of rig and go. They didn't work out but once.
Had to shut down early Sat and miss all the DX on 20. Baseball size hail was
coming at us from New Mexico and I could have logged by the lightening so my
pilot and I found a hole for the night. My wife/pilot did pretty good. 854
miles and only one missed turn. The missed turn gave us 31 counties instead
of the planned 30. The end of the QSO Party found us 10 miles from home.
Super planning (another term for dumb luck)
