COMMENTS

Enjoyed the contest from the black hole.  Had a computer logging glitch
about 3 hours in and the MFJ Keyer went berzerk.  Otherwise had a good time.
Definitely not a good idea to try to operate SSB from the black hole with a
vertical and 75 watts.  Enjoyed the CW portion though.

Tried to put up a wire for 20M at the last minute, but didn't have the tuner
out of storage, and could not get a good SWR on the wire.  So I tore it down
and used the wire for radials on the vertical  :).
