Soapbox : 
This contest was a shakeout cruise for the new tower and the
VHF/UHF antennas that were constructed and installed between 
Oct 2010 and Feb 2011 (see link on QRZ.com). The antennas 
worked very well and the operators W3IKE and W2GPS had fun. Lots
of improvements are needed inside the shack, both in equipment 
configuration and operating procedures, but the experience 
of this contest will go a long way towards planning for those 
changes. 

The Operating time was 13 hours 55 minutes.
