Comments:

Last year I had a chance to go back to my home town of Goshen, 
IN to work this contest and had a grand old time from the club
station there. I was hoping to try it again this year from my 
own QTH, but basically had to sit it out. My older daughter and 
her husband purchased a new house 
(new to them, it was built in 1768) in Weymouth, MA on the 9th
and I spent the weekend there helping them clean up, clean out
and doing a lot of yard work in all the brutal heat and humidity. 
The 15th was also my birthday, the big 7-Oh. As much as I wanted 
to do the contest, I wanted to help them too. I think I signed 
up for that on a June night in 1980 when there wasn't anything 
interesting on TV and my wife and I decided to provide our own 
entertainment. It worked out well and we've all lived happily 
ever since.

The little bit of operating I did was assisted and I wasn't 
careful about the band change rule. I found one 
violation, so this is a CHECKLOG. I don't recall actually ever 
using the cluster data but I may have spotted a few stations. 
I don't feel discriminated against by the rules. I'm fine.

QSO counts seemed high here on the 3830 reports but I didn't hear 
much DX. Lots of stateside activity, however.  I think it was an
EU contest and a NA contest.  Two for one.

The next biggie for me is the CQ WW RTTY in September. My favorite
contest.

73,
Kermit, AB1J
