Comments:

I started the contest one hour late and never really was able to get caught up
with the rest of the pack.  We have had lots of snow and ice here in Crossville,
TN the past couple of weeks and the ice caused most of my antennas to have a
very high SWR.  One rotator is not working and so I have presented my usual
excuses...hi hi.  Enjoyed the contest and did better than I thought considering.
 Everyone was very thoughtful and polite, no rudness that I saw, and I was asked
only once to move just a little in a very nice way.  

My new antenna array worked very well even with the very high SWR.  It consist
of a TH6DXX at 100' - TH6DXX at 66' and a TH7DXX at 33'.  Switching is achieved
by using a WX0B Stackmatch.  

As usual Writelog works like no other software that I have every used....I love
it and have never had any problems with the program.  I noticed several TCG
members on and with very competive signals.
