Comments:

Got on 20+ minutes late and then struggled with my SO2R box that wouldn't swutch
radios at first.  An hour into the contest the VOX function on my 6 meter rig
stopped functioning altogeter so i spent almost an hour fixing this issue.  I
finally rebooted everything and started over.  Everything was ok with the Vox
but still no SO2R.  Finally about 5 hours into the contest after trying several
new settings ...KABAMB!!---everything started working as it should!

The BAD(/GOOD) news is that for much of the rest of the contest the rate on 6
was so high I couldn't use SO2R anyway!

In spite of these little learning curve setbacks (my first real foray into VHF
contesting), I had a great time (especially on the majic band).  

I'm definitely hooked!

George, NR5M
