Started the contest with a sore throat and a stuffed up head, but things were
going great and I was having fun, especially Sat. night when I had a good run
into JA land. But at the end of Sat night my throat was really tight and I
was very hoarse. I took some home remidies, mainly some hard stuff from my bar
and went to bed intending to have a great second day. My wife woke me up at
0600L and I went to say "good morning" and nothing came out of my mouth. Oh
no! Oh well I would try to just work CW, but my head was so stuffed up I could
not even do that. So after a good first day, I could only make 99 Q's the
second day, including four new country multipliers just using my voice keyer.
I had to crack up when I worked ZD8Z and he said "I hope my signal is as strong
as yours". I tried to say "I wish my voice was was as strong as yours", but
nothing would come out. Heck, I still had a great time. There sure were a lot
of good operators on and it was nice to say hello(when I could) to some good
friends. Happy Holidays to All!
