Comments:

Thanks for stopping by!  It is always nice to hear familiar voices when far from
home!  We did fairly well, considering our "Bahamian style" of
contesting. I think some of our Caribbean competition did better with KW
amplifiers, towers and beams for each band.  We were 100 watts and wires!  That
is our handicap...the Bahamas has a 250 watt limit, other islands can run a KW.
Hard to hold a frequency.  With all the antennas Europe, not many listened for
us to the south.  But, we still had fun!  Our 3 OP positions went to 4 on
Sunday nite when 10 meters did not close like it usually does.  The 4th
position was a hasty trip to the hurricane closet to retrieve a 1981 vintage
TS-430S and set it up on a 40m. dipole.  That dipole rope was cut by the palm
tree fronds and high winds after the contest. We found the wire on the ground
Monday morning.  Regarding 10 meters, I guess there were some E clouds warmed
up by all the US contest RF and that kept 10 m. open!  Our ops were:  AG2K,
K1EP, N1GN, K1EP and NE1B.
