SO1R:  IC-7410 AL-1200 Field Day antennas.  CT-DOS.

Murphy arrived after the fifth contact and he hung around all weekend.  
Antenna SWR became a problem on the relay switching system for the antennas and 
I had to take a break to put all the feedlines back on a hard switch.  On 
QSO nr 891 the computer froze up and I had to reboot.  When the computer came 
back, it showed QSO nr 732 on the entry line.  All the contacts were still 
there but the serial number was wrong.  So I have 159 contacts with 
duplicate serial numbers.  This morning a friend told me that you can reset the 
serial number with the command SETSERIAL.  Another unpublished feature!!  I 
tried it and it worked.  I had RF issues the entrie contest that locked the key 
and I had to limit the power to 700 watts to keep it from happening.  I have 
never had these problems before.  So something to work on for the next few 
weeks.
 
I can't lower the antennas today because of the wind.  Maybe tomorrow.

I quit with an hour to go.  No one would answer my CQs and all the CQers 
were worked already.  The good news is that a sweep was easy.
