Comments:

As the saying goes “plans are made for changing”.  Such was the case with
this year’s SS Phone.  The intent was to make a serious attempt and see how
the station would play.  That plan quickly changed as I was standing on the top
of the tower at the start of the contest.   I wouldn’t finish until two hours
later and pretty much beat from said antenna work.  I can tell myself that I
won’t have to deal with that bad feed line and balun again…

Regardless I had a good time; conditions were pretty good for our part of the
country.  And the station seemed to play pretty well.   Got to 20m early on
Sunday, with the band being long I had some EU call me from time to time. 
Biggest surprise was EP4MRG calling in with a 559 report! 

Biggest downer of the weekend was hearing of K5KA’s passing.  Ken was a class
act and a gentleman, may he rest in peace.
