Comments:

My favorite contest, bar none!  Having the Tribander / Single Element category 
just adds to the fun.

Equipment was a Force 12 C3S @ 45 ft and dipole for 40m.

After two years in the Turks & Caicos as VP5GA, this was a minor let down, but 
still fun!

It was my first time trying single op, two radio operating, and I can see the 
potential, although with my station it is pretty much unattained.  With only a 
tribander @ 45 feet and a dipole for 40m, I had to switch between 20 and 40 to 
utilize the two radios.  Even so, I worked 115 Q's on the alternate radio!  
Considering I could only do this at certain times and not during the entire 
contest, this is a significant addition to my score.  If I had other antennas, 
then I can see a use throughout the entire contest.  I'm sure that's how the 
big guns can put up bigger numbers.

Just a quick note to say how impressed I was with Top Ten Devices Single OP two 
radio box, the DX Doubler.  It really worked great and let me concentrate on 
making QSO's instead of switching.  Dave N3RD got me going the week before and 
enabled me to use it during the contest.  

So, it was lots of fun!  Thank you to all the great ops out there that heard my 
low power station!

73, George
