A contest we will never forget... 

Normally ARRL CW has the highest fun factor for us: usually knee-deep snow on
the hill, no rotator problems, lots of good (but very unhealthy) food, litres
of redwine etc and easy pileups. This time it was completely different: the
termination of the beverages were chewed up by wild boars in the forest, a big
part of the wire was stolen, 6 hours before the start we only had a 160m and
15m antenna functioning. However as usually at 2355 everything seemed to be
ready for the contest but it was only a elusive mirage... Within half an hour
the Run amp broke down (tube got fried) and it was just the beginning... 48
hours later we were beyond 5 amp repair breaks, a replaced IP router and a few
other O&M issues... Anyway we kept working the pileups and had some fun with
the fb 80m condx and the hot 15m sprints. 

Next year it can only be better :))
