                    SMC - Dead Lizards Can't Talk 
             (ask VS6WO how that name came to be)

           
WX9E      264 x 50                     W9RE     286 x 48
WE9V     287 x 50                      KK9V    223 x 45
KA9FOX   302 x 49                     WD0T    299 x 46
KO9Y        215 x 40 (low pwr)    K4XU     240 x 43 (low pwr)
K9ZO        292 x 55                    VE4VV     46 x ??
     (AG9A op)

Total score not including VE4VV is         114,845  

Derrick had some unexpected visitors from out of 
town just 46 Qs into the contest and had to stop 
or else we would have gotten over the 120k mark.

Any other Team scores?  Grateful Eds?

As was the case in the CQWW SSB write-up, the new "Top Scores In Very 
Active Zones" is a great addition.

As was the case also, there appears to be some errors in this one too...and 
of course, both involve me.

I believe the CQ software thinks that if you use a 4-land call, you must be 
in zone 5.  But those of us in zone 4 know differently!  Once again my 
score was overlooked, and again, I'm sure others were as well.

I think CQ should look closely at how they "rank" stations, with 
particular regard to zones that encompass more than one call area.

We found about five errors with these new boxes last time...I wonder how 
many this time?

73,

I can't find my Rohn book. What's the maximum height that Rohn 25G can be 
self-supporting with a load of about 10 sq. ft.? I think I remember 30 
feet, but I'm not sure. I'd like to put up about 30' for the winter and 
throw a big tribander (with a 40m add-on kit) on it as the antenna 
system for the second CONTEST radio.

73, Greg
