        This was a tough one. Lost my rotatable KT34XA Saturday morning. Stuck
with wire dipoles for the remainder of the contest. Looking up the tower I
think the coax is pinched as it goes around the rotor.  It rotates, but the
SWR is high and the antenna is deaf.

        After the poor condx at the start, very high "K" and "A", things got
better all weekend. Even without the beam had 80+ hours.  These new
soundcard programs are sure producing a lot of newcomers.  Wonderful!

        Used Writelog with P-38 and MMTTY on one radio (80, 20,10 meters).
Writelog with PCI-3000 and MMTTY  for the second radio(40,15 meters). The
sequential numbering is still poor. In addition the insert key method of
grabbing calls has changed in  this last version (10.30b). Many times I
found myself sending just the report with no call after hitting the insert
key!! I don't know what is different. But with previous versions of
Writelog I have pushed the insert key many thousands of times without
problems. Will ah ve to set up some test conditions to figure out the
differences,

        Thanks to all of you for the Q's. Sorry if I seemed to stumble coming 
back
to you some of the time.
