[VHFcontesting] a new Strategy for home and club stations

Pizza delivery guys might be a bit more nervous these days after the poor  
pizza delivery guy in Erie PA a few years ago who for his efforts got a bomb 
 strapped to his body, and ended up unwillingly doing an imitation of a 
crazy  middle east terrorist.
 
I hope the guy in Texas got a good tip....

As a student at the University of Texas, we were  once operating the ARRL
November Sweepstakes and successfully got a pizza  delivery guy to bring us 
pizza at the shack.  The directions were  something like: "it's the 
building 
at the northeast corner of the  intersection, but there's two buildings 
at that corner and you want the  easternmost one.  You need to take the 
elevator up to the top floor,  that's level four, and then take the 
roof access stairs at the eastern end  of the building up to the roof.  
We're in the penthouse on the other  end of the roof - the one with a 
radio tower next to it.  Just follow  the boardwalk, but mind the loose
boards."  That only worked once  :-)
