Good turn out by all and this time all team members have reported 
scores.  Many had antenna and lightning problems.  K1ZZI lost his K3 to 
a lightning strike.  K4EA and KU8E had unexpected antenna problems that 
caused them to lose hours of operating time (and K4EA to be 
band-limited).  Remember that the weekend of August 15 is the SSB NAQP. 
  WA1FCN needs team members for ACG and K4BAI needs team members for SECC.

key, but you can double your score by using a hand key and multiply by 1 
1/2 for using a bug.

Hope everyone has a nice weekend and a lot of QSOs.  Post your scores to 
3830 or let me have them by Tuesday night, if possible.

I hope to get the Alpha 91B I purchased from the estate of KS4Q hooked 
up in time for some WAE QSOs this weekend.  The other two amps at my QTH 
need some repairs.

If you have a chance, please plan to attend the Huntsville Hamfest on 
the weekend of August 14-16.  There will be a lot of contest related 
activities to enjoy.

73,  John, K4BAI.
