Barefoot operation.  Ring rotor still broken since IARU. :-(


 Soapbox Comments
 ________________

 Ten and fifteen were a complete washout.  Twenty wasn't much better.
 Thank goodness for forty meters.  Overall score way down from last year,
 mainly due to a pitiful multiplier count.  Also messed up off times,
 resulting in about 9:35 of operating time.  K4WX was the only 6-bander.  
 Sounded like the left coast ops were having a good time on twenty & 
 fifteen.  All in all, not very memorable conditions from Tennessee.  
 Expected a little more with a SFI of 152 at the start of the contest.  
 As always, hope springs eternal for good conditions in the next contest.  
 
 CU in the CW Sprint, and thanks for the QSO's and QSY's.
