 have two beverages and a horiz 160 loop that wasn't used in this test.

 had limited operating time with my company's Christmas party Friday and
 a new home PC to put together on Sat nite.  
 The bands were good on Friday nite late but Sat nite the static was worse.
 Was excited when i worked both WY and UT which were hard ones during SS.
 Was disappointed Sat when i (a Hunt and Pouncer) found mostly the same
 guys calling.
