Comments:

Knew going into the weekend that I would have little time to operate and would
need to do so from inside my house, rather than my shack (in backyard). So, I
decided to fire up the Flex 6600M and Maestro. Unfortunately, I didn't have time
to get everything updated and setup on Thursday, so started the setup about 2
hours before the start of the contest. Took much longer than I expected to
update equipment and resolve problems. Finally, was able to transmit audio 20
hours into the contest.

Decided to entertain myself by only working stations that would be a new mult
(country or zone). As a result spent most of my time tuning for a few QSOs.

Rig: Flex 6600M + Maestro - 100 watts
Antenna: SteppIR DB-36 at 70 ft
Antenna: Optibeam OB16-3 at 50 ft fixed SE
