 Well, things started out with a bang, literally.  Had
 things working well Friday night and then Saturday morning
 the computer decided to give up the ghost.  Couldn't
 get it to recognize the C drive.  Ran IDE auto-config
 in setup, and it kept telling me it was there, but every
 time I tried to access the C drive, the computer would tell
 me it was an "invalid drive specification."  I had an old
 '486 so I re-furbed it and moved the software to that one
 and at about 2250 got back on the air.  Then there wasn't any
 stations around to work.  Had fun after things came back up  
again.
 Had to leave for a couple of hours later to go listen to my son
 play guitar.  All in all, it was a good day.  Lots of fun to 
 work the regulars and newbies.  Only had 1 station call me off 
 frequency all day.  Seems how everyone is learning how to run
 this stuff.  73
