SOAPBOX: After a winter of heavy snow and a lot of ice that destroyed the
6m and 2m antennas, W3YOZ and his team were able to repair the antennas,
and also raise the 6M and 2M towers heights too. They completed the work
the day 
before the contest.
 
An update, July 12th: Marty, W3YOZ, is now working on raising the 432MHZ
tower and installing a larger beam. More details closer to the September
contest.

2003 CQWW-VHF contest: W3TEF and W3BTX will be multi-op from W3SO, FN00sn.
QSL to W3TEF.
