Thanks for putting many SECC calls in my log! Wish I could put more faces to 
the callsigns, though - lots of new GA contesters since I was a Gwinnett 
County "local."

K9AY ARRL 160:  1465 - 77 - 32 = 336,374

Amp crashed 1 hr 40 min into the contest. Got it fixed in less than an hour, 
but lost my momentum and a good run frequency. Felt like I was playing 
catch-up for the rest of the 'test. Still was lots of fun with good activity

Neighboring ACG is going strong, but I've NEVER worked so many SC stations! 
Is this the new "hot destination" for contesters???

(2) IC-765, Alpha 99
100' 25G vertical, base insulated, top-loaded
(2) 550 ft. Beverages - NE & SE
(2) 330 ft. short Beverages - NW & SW

I'l be doing the QST & ARRL Web writeup again for this contest. If any of 
you have interesting, inspirational - or just wierd - stories about the 
contest, let me know!
