Comments:

First full ocntest in over six months due to extensive travel, and the rust
shows (on the operator as well as the station!).  The primary logging computer
failed and the replacement parts did not arrive before the contest; the backup
computer was missing a key piece of configuration for the interface to the
Microham, so no keying or frequency logging in the logging program, and the
contest was done by hand with the paddle.  The yagi needed some replacement
parts (done the day before the contest) and the wire in the wire antennas had
suffered due to water ingress so had to be replaced (the morning of the
contest).  Started a bit late as a result, with the laptop for logging but no
docking station, all just a lesson in re-thinking the backup strategy and
getting ready well in advance - of course well known already!  Decided to run
low power and it DOES make a difference in the pileups! - and very weak runs.

Still, good fun and nice to be back in the chair.
