There is nothing like having good conditions to remind you how much fun it can
be to work a radio contest - even a PHONE CONTEST from Northwest Arkansas. 
Conditions sounded like 11 years ago when we worked our first contest after
building the station.  

We are still using the same, single Yagi for 10M that we started with 11 years
ago.  That is the only antenna that has not changed and is clearly the one band
where we we are lacking as compared to the others. More gain will be nice when
we do something about it, but not having to rotate the antenna so much will
also be of great benefit.

A few days before the contest it looked like KD0HY, N5DX and K5GO would be
staying up the whole time.  Some great, part-time help came through, however. 
We were glad to have W5OX and his 10 year old (extra class) grandson, KF5COP,
come up to help out for several hours.  K5NX was able to come for the entire
day on Sunday.  K5LG was there at the beginning and spent a lot of time helping
out on both Saturday and Sunday.  Having good conditions to go with KD0HY being
there for the duration, a good time will be had by all.  Terry said I should
have had about six kids and trained them all to be as good as N5DX.

We were pleased to put forth an effort that, unless there is a winning
performance from the crew at K5TR, should set a new record for Multi Single for
W5 set 21 years ago by a who's who of radio contesting from K5MR.

Thanks to the cumulative efforts of the thousands of individuals worldwide who
operate the contest, making it an enjoyable event for everyone involved.
