Comments:

Another fun weekend with the guys.  We improved on last years score so that 
was encouraging.
   We almost had to cancel at the last minute.  90 minutes before the start 
while K1SE was playing around on the band, the amp kicked off line due to a 
high SWR fault.  Further checking showed we either had a bad feedline to the 
array or the stack switch box was bad.  After careful consideration, I decided 
to go up the tower in the wind and dark to swap the feedline with the 15 meter 
array.  Thankfully, that solved the problem.  We also lost the 87A on Sunday. 
Looks like a problem with the PIN switching diodes.
  Happy holidays!
