Comments:

Was supposed to be an easy week.

On Wednesday night at dinner we planned on going to the beach the next day.

On Thursday night at dinner, having not been to the beach, we planned how to
bring all the broken stuff home.

Unfortunately, the worst was yet to come.

In the end, I had a malfunctioning dipole, a failed radio, four failed
amplifiers, and a power outage during the peak hours.  Was limited to 300W for
the last 20 hours.

Nonetheless I had my personal best hour (241) and my personal best ARRL CW
score.

Thanks to everyone for the QSO's and moves.
