Hope you guy's did well in the contest. Just thought you might get a kick 
out of seeing my contest site. This picture was taken Friday before the 
contest. Mike N4OFA and I were trying to get 10gig going before the test. 
Wasn't as good as last year but still did good for QRP. 60,000 + . High 
light of the contest was working W1LP/MM of the coast of NC on 6/m 2/m and 
432. Had around 300 mile contact on 1296. It sure was fun working 1296 in 
the test. Had a blast Friday night working some of the stations in the area 
on all bands before the test. Had a great time and the antennas worked 
great. Credit them in making some contacts that I may not have been able to 
get if I wasn't running stacks. I spent a lot of time tuning and working on 
the antennas to get them as perfect as possible before the test. It paid 
off. Good to hear you guys on and running so clean. Had 5 rovers that I 
helped get ready for the contest form my club. Hope they helped you guys 
out. They will be on for September and I hope I will be able to go to the 
mountain again. My back is not doing to  well and it puts me out for a time 
when I go mountain topping. W4NH runs a good station and you guys are all 
my friends and was great to hear you on. Please pass this on to all your 
ops. See you guys in September.
73' till next time.
