Hello to all
Well its over and I did better than I planned considering what all happened and what I learned, learned is as followed
1 When you hear your rotator grinding blocks away, rebuild it weeks before the contest, those ball bearings are hard to find on the garage floor.
2 When you took the rotatable dipole down last year and did not fix those lose traps dont be surprised when they break when you take the rotator down to fix.
3 When the wife says you can participate, question it. She means you can in-between all the jobs on her list.
4 Do not be in a hurry during the contest because that coffee is hot and makes a mess on the desk, trust me.
All in all I had a great time, finished the wifes list, fixed the rotator (potentiometer is busted now) put up a new dipole(small lot for a beam), cleaned the desk(needed it) I just hope everyone had as great of a time like I did
