Dick,

What you say is all true!  

I am getting the dipole up about 20 feet more today.  

One of my problems is BIC. Hopefully, I can stay better focused this weekend.

I think last year I had my S&P set up working well by using both receivers in my K3 and a program that shows decoding on both frequencies.  As I am waiting on one guy to finish I can set up for the next one.  Works great, but, like many things, once I get it working well I get bored and move on to trying something else!

I am doing some thinking this week about whether I want to run “U” unlimited again this year or not.  

I noticed in the results from last year that my best band was 10M.  I suspect that may not be true this year!

Thanks for the advice and CU in the contest.

Rick
