Soapbox: Conditions were the usual total blahs for September. We didn't 
work as many rovers as usual but for those that were out, thanks for the QSOs.

One of the 6m operators reported that we only got two very short openings 
into TX and FL. and just worked a few stations. It was basically ground 
wave for the entire contest.

Instead of the 500w amp for 222MHz we only had a 100w brick.

We had two new operators join the team, W2GPS and W3IDT.

For the Wopsononock Mountaintop Operators,
