Comments:

May have to see a Doctor tomorrow.
That spotting screen wore some skin off my nose.

Probably no more than ten contacts made via the CQ route.

We've had a phased beverage system toward NW this season.
Only spaced 134 feet apart.
A few days before this contest Marlene got behind me with a big 
stick and made me spread it out to 3/4 wl.
Barely got it finished by Friday afternoon.
Early Saturday morning I realized I had made a serious mistake.
It was quiet as a dummy load.

Sunday evening I found that in my haste to keep 
one of the matching devices from flopping in the breeze
I had taped it to the ground rod and a screw on the rear
was shorted to the rod.
Well anyway it was a very quiet receive antenna
Not recommended for a serious contest.
