Comments:

This was the first contest after doing quite a a bit of rebuilding in the
shack. I added extra comports to the computers and repositioned both radios and
antenna switching. Murphy will usually jump and bite after those kind of
things, but the station ran perfectly.  We did find out that a C4XL doesn't
work well on 160 meters even at 115'.  All the operators convienced me that we
left to many unanswered Q's in the noise. Hopefully a call to the power and
ligh company will help me on that account.  They are really good at sniffing
out the locally generated noise. A bulldozer took down the beverage on the
borrowed property be hind me.  So we were left with no receiving antennas. It
really hurt us on 80 and 160.
