Comments:

Guest op WA1N will report separately.  Played in the background and set a goal
of 250K.  Saturday was busy with all kinds of family things but did make an
emergency run to a nearby contester to troubleshoot his 160 M problem. Under
key down conditions (1KW), the short piece of coax used as a stub capacitor
(across his variable cap in his gamma feed) was flaming at the end - that was
impressive.  Cut off about 1 inch and retuned the variable cap and was back in
business.  

Fun even though I had limited time available.  But I think another great
experience for a newer contester.  Second operation using the new station
layout for SO2R.  

Thanks for all the Q's.
73, Mark, K1RX
