Comments:

Representing the Amateur Radio Club of Alameda, WQ6X once again 
ran an ICOM-7000 from WB6RUC's sailboat in Alameda's Aeolian
yacht harbor.  Other club members chose to operate from
from their homes in and around Alameda.

A number of nuisance problems needed fixing in the beginning, 
after which things ran smoothly throughout the day.
CAT control was not working and the West Mountain Plug-N-Play on COM2 
was not responding to N1MM's Function Key commands.  The solution was 
to send the callsign manually, then invoke the 4 Cw memories to send 
the callsign, call CQ, send the EXCHG and then send TU K6QLF.

For antennas the IC-7000 ran into a Sloper-wire to the top of the mast
as well as a Butternut HF2-V Vertical (for 80 / 40) strapped to the main 
mast.  Somehow 160 meters was missed.
