Comments:

WHEN THERE WAS ONLY ONE OF US IN THE RADIO ROOM THAT PERSON WAS WORKING BOTH THE
6 AND 2 METER STATIONS PLUS WORKING THE WAC CONTEST ALL AT THE SAME TIME. FUN
AND BUSY.  THE RECENTLY PURCHASED AL80A (CONVERTED TO 6 METERS ONLY) AMP BURNED
UP IT'S RF PROTECTION CHOKE THAT IS ON THE RF OUTPUT NETWORK TO GROUND.  THAT
REPAIR TIME REDUCED OUR 6 METER RATE FOR A WHILE BUT THE AMP IS NOW BACK ON
LINE, PUTTING OUT MORE POWER WITH LESS DRIVE AND RUNNING COOLER! WE WERE
SURPRISED AT THE NUMBER OF GRIDS WE WORKED ON 2 METERS WITH JUST 100 WATTS AND
THE OMNI DIRECTIONAL PHASED ARRAY.  SOME STATIONS WERE A BIT OF A CHALLENGE. SEE
YOU ALL IN THE NEXT VHF CONTEST.  73 FROM THE WA3EKL CONTEST TEAM
