Murphy:  
  - Fired up the rig a few minutes before contest start - no signals received! 
Sleuthing revealed a nicely sheared coaxial feed line.  Mike didn't bury the
cable deep enough. (So not really Murphy I guess.) Lawn guy's edger won the
battle.  With help from the XYL emergency repairs completed just before we ran
out of light.  Little biting bugs getting pretty bad here in Florida....  
  - One of the amplifier's 3-500s failed to light up Sunday.  Oh well, -3 db for
the day.
Enjoyed the contest.  It's been a while.  So there was much rust evident.  Got
to resolve this issue where RF shuts down the TS-590 USB comm port.  Can't
really do an assisted effort until I do so.  
Thanks all and see you next fall.  
Mike
TS-590, SB-221, Butternut HF9-V and W6LVP receiving loop (it would have been
brutal without it)
