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..."
