Comments:
WHAT A HOOT. I GREATLY RESPECT THOSE WHO ENJOY THE SS CONTEST'S. I DID AT ONE
TIME. IN FACT 43 YEARS AGO MY WIFE AND I RUSHED HOME FROM OUR HONEYMOON SO I
COULD PARTICIPATE IN SS PHONE. SHE BECAME A HAM 2 MONTHS LATER AND STILL IS AND
WE ARE STILL TOGETHER.
SUNDAY WE HAD A BIT OF A WIND STORM AND WHEN WE WERE DOWN TO OUR LAST TWO MULTS
BC AND KP4 THE BC APPEARED. AS I BEGAN TO WORK HIM WE GOT MULTIPLE BROWN OUTS
AND HITS WHICH N1MM DIDN'T PARTICULARLY LIKE. THE BC STATION ASKED FOR OUR
SERIAL NUMBER A FEW TIMES AND WHEN I FINALLY RECOVERED I SENT IT A FEW TIMES AND
HOPEFULLY IT WAS COPIED. I WOULD LIKE TO SAY "THANK YOU" TO THE 40
METER OPERATOR AT N1RM ON SUNDAY. I WAS TRANSMITTING AT 20 WPM WHILE I WAS AT
THE KEY. (WA3EKL) YOU SIR WERE THE ONLY STATION THAT SLOWED DOWN TO MATCH MY
SPEED. THAT IS THE GENTLEMAN'S ART OF CONTESTING!
THE FOOD WAS EXCELLENT AND FUN WAS HAD BY ALL DESPITE THE LONG PREAMBLE OF
INFORMATION WE MUST EXCHANGE. TNX TO ALL THE STATIONS WHO HAD PATIENCE'S WITH
US AND THOSE WHO CONTACTED US.
73 FROM OUR CREW, WA3EKL KB3VQC K3MTR N3DPB
