Fun contest. 10 and 15 a pleasant surprise. Congrats
to Bill on a GREAT score. I think AAA has something to
do with shooting down the competition, hi.

Still working on getting my home station all  
set-up for 2 radio contesting. Still have quite a bit 
of "ergonomic" improvements to make inside. About 
the only antenna project left is to get a better 10/15 
antenna. For SS CW I had a small tribander on the 
chimney fixed NW. Told XYL it would only go up for 
major contests for OCT/NOV. Sure could have used it 
this weekend, though.

Fun to operate from home station. Have 2 amps 
but can't compete high power (and probably would 
upset the neighbors, too). I live on a 1/3 acre in Dallas
city limits. Power company has fixed > 30 poles so far
but there's always the 31st! Looking forward to some 
SUNSPOTS so I can get off of the [NOISEY] 80 and 
160 bands. 

Looks like my High Power guest-op days are over 
for awhile. Looking forward to the opportunity to
do somehting different after 18 years!
