[Fourlanders] September Contest

HI Folks-

The comment I made in haste in response to Bob a few days ago has apparently 
caused some consternation and confusion in the ranks, so I would like to make 
several comments which I hope will clear everything up.

1. I apologized to Bob for that comment several days ago in a private Email.  
I had been waiting for a private response from him before putting anything 
out here on the reflector.  But since he has not responded, I feel that I 
should go ahead and clear the air by stating to everyone here that that 
comment was made in haste before thinking, and I should not have made it.  
There are extinuating circumstances, but they do not need to be discussed 
here.  I will try to leave the insulting comments to the real pro, W4KXY, 
from now on ;-).

2.  It appears to even one as hard-headed and dense as me, that we can barely 
manage a 4-band effort if we have only 6 or 7 people on the mountain, as 
appears likely.  Unless there is a change in that situation, I will help with 
setup, operation and take-down on 6, 2, 222 or 432, wherever I am needed, and 
will not try to do any microwave stuff (unless I just set up something quick 
and portable temporarily for an hour or two to give out a few Q's).  

3.  Unless someone needs it for some other purpose, I will rent a space below 
the top 4, at my own expense, to park my RV where it will be out of the way.

Though I am not certain I will make it to Huntsville, I'm still hopeful that 
I can, and I hope to see many of you there.

73 to all,

Steve, K4RF
