PLEASE NOTE THE CALLSIGN CORRECTION ABOVE AND IN THE WRITEUP BELOW. N5TJ
OPERATED WITH US AND HELPED TO GET THE NICE MULT TOTAL, NOT N5NJ AS
NOTED IN THE FIRST POSTING. HOW EMABRASSING TO BUST THE CALL OF ONE
OF YOUR OPERATORS, BUT GUESS THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU GET OLD AND
TRY TO MAKE A CONTEST SUMMARY POSTING ON NO SLEEP!!
ACTUALLY, N5NJ WAS GOING TO OPERATE WITH US TOO, BUT HE ALREADY HAD A
PREVIOUS COMMITMENT AT AA5NT. SORRY ABOUT THAT JEFF AND BOB. BOTH OF
YOU CAN CHASTISE ME AT THE NEXT CLUB MEETING!
Comments: Conditions were decent, but sounded better earlier in the
week. First time out for the nearly completed K5MR station. Everything
worked flawlessly, which was nice. The main 40m antenna is still down
for repair, but the 402CD filled in nicely. With the outside temp in the
105 deg F range during the day, it got pretty warm in the shack with the
extra heat generated by the equipment.
Thanks to NM5M for getting us off to a good start. N5TJ operated with us
the
last half of the contest and worked hard to get the mult total above 200.
K5RT stopped by for a couple of hours of static crashes on the low bands
(ouch!). The rest of us were on for the duration.
The 24 hour format is a nice alternative. Should be even more fun next
year.
See you this fall.
73,
K5MR
