The ONLY time I've ever operated a full contest (or close to it) was when 
I talked XYL into taking kids and visiting her folks (out of town). 
Otherwise, it's hopeless here! Can't even get a reliable 100 Q rate on CT 
cuz of 5-10 minute interruptions all the time :.(

Hey Jeff - How about electing Terri as president of the contester-XYL 
society? She can give pep talks...

Folks,
        Ya know when I asked this question, I figured that it would be 
pretty clear cut.  I had no idea I would have to post a summary HI HI.
Thanks to everyone that responded and after looking things over and 
consulting my roomate's operating manual ( I wish he had told me he owned 
one before I filled over 1000 emailboxes with my mindless drivel :) )
I found that I am indeed in zone 4.  But, I am on the border it seems.


tnx agn es cu in the test,

Sim, KK5EA/4   "...sweet second home Alabama, where the skies are so blue..."
