Comments:
Acom amp died 30 minutes prior to kickoff! I had to do surgery to fix the HEATER
VOLTAGE TOO LOW error. It was a smoked filament supply connector. The early
Acoms are apparently notorious for this. What lousy timing, though!
All in all, I'm pleased. I was pretty distracted at times with other things
going on, but the station played well. I had trouble getting a decent long-term
run going, but I usually smashed pileups with ease.
I was hoping for another Top Ten, but that's looking doubtful after seeing a
few of the other scores. The return of 15m was so refreshing! Keep them spots
coming!

P.S., I dedicate this contest to the C6APR team. What a horrific tragedy! I got
a lump in my throat every time a station would come back to W3PP, as they so
often do. I miss Dallas already! :-(
