Comments:

You would think over the years I would learn NOT to take all my 2 hours of
breaks up front. By 3 PM all my 2 hours of breaks were gone. Then
'contest interrupterus' caused me to lose another 2 hours. 
Only got in 8 hours...Saving those last 50 QSO's for 80 meters to
break 500. Went to 80. Noise off the charts. Managed 24 locals.. 20 and 40 were
great. Nobody there to S&P on 15 and 10 to 20 CQ's for a QSO toooo long.

For those who eMailed me regarding my washing machine motor driven spinning
GAP verticals, I found the wash cycle is best for 80/40.The rinse cycle is best 
for
20 and the spin cycle for 15/10.  According to the instructions from the K6NA 
phase
auger driven RF wavefront synchronizer for Gotham verticals the slower rotation 
of the vertical in the wash cycle corresponds to the longer 80/40 meter 
wavefronts.
This also agrees with Steven Hawkins expanding universe theory.
