Below is my report to 3830 reflector on NAQP SSB last weekend.  I 
couldn't get the antenna to resonate through the tuner on 160.  Don't 
know what the problem is.  Also, have not yet hooked up the DVK that I 
bought in December.  Need to do that for voice contests, as my voice 
won't hold out as long as it did when I was younger.

Michigan QRP Contest:

17 x 14 = 518  2.0 hours.  Very little activity whenever I listened 
during this once popular contest.

Flying Pigs QRP Club Sprint:

39 x 28 + ____. 1:58 hours.  Didn't realize that complex computing 
required to determine the score and don't have that log with me at the 
office.  Activity was way down from previous FP events.  I know we were 
supposed to be on the verge of bad band conditions.  However, except for 
the to-be-expected long skip on 20 and 40, band conditions seemed 
perfectly good to me.  Operated all contests SO2R, but had some kind of 
a computer/SO2R box/logging program problem during Mi QRP contest that 
kept shutting the computer down.  Disconnected the box and it worked OK. 
  Then set it all up again for FP and it worked for two hours flawlessly.

Maybe I'll

Couldn't get the antenna to load on 160 M for some reason.  Maybe 
something has
happened to the antenna tuner.
