Derrick had some unexpected visitors from out of
town just 46 Qs into the contest and had to stop
or else we would have gotten over the 120k mark.
Any other Team scores? Grateful Eds?

As was the case in the CQWW SSB write-up, the new "Top Scores In Very
Active Zones" is a great addition.
As was the case also, there appears to be some errors in this one too...and
of course, both involve me.
I believe the CQ software thinks that if you use a 4-land call, you must be
in zone 5. But those of us in zone 4 know differently! Once again my
score was overlooked, and again, I'm sure others were as well.
I think CQ should look closely at how they "rank" stations, with
particular regard to zones that encompass more than one call area.
We found about five errors with these new boxes last time...I wonder how
many this time?
73,

Subject: Rohn 25 capacity?
Message-ID: <Pine.A32.3.91.950918182512.108329A-100000@core.bard.edu>
I can't find my Rohn book. What's the maximum height that Rohn 25G can be
self-supporting with a load of about 10 sq. ft.? I think I remember 30
feet, but I'm not sure. I'd like to put up about 30' for the winter and
throw a big tribander (with a 40m add-on kit) on it as the antenna
system for the second CONTEST radio.
73, Greg
