Well I performed the mortal sin and ran a new radio, software,
station configuration in this one. Had some real wierd problems with
WF1B 3.2C running networked. Occasionally garbaged characters would appear
in the log fields on both stations. Also station #2 would occasionally
just decide to change bands. I thought both might be RF probs but it would
do it when not xmitting. Also station #2 would lose track of dupes. That
machine was running RITTY so I don't know if there was anything to that.
Still, had lots of fun and look forward to next year. It was a personal low
power best for me. Even managed to work all states, Hawaii came through in
the last 2 minutes.
