Had a fun Field Day. (OK, any day in a cabin by the lake is fun!)

Class:  2B-2op Battery w/Jim, W0UO
QTH:  Long Lake, 8 mi. E of New Auburn, WI
XYL alternative activity: Antique shops in Chetek

879 QSOs (all CW):
     80:  48   (rotten QRN)
     40:  188
     20:  390
     15:  140
     10:  113

8,790 QSO points + 450 bonus points
Claimed score:  9,240

Rigs:  K3, IC-765, both @5 watts
Pwr:  4x 100AH solar-charged gel cells
Antennas:
     80:  Inv-V at 50'
     40:  Dipole at 45' + full-size vertical on 30' x 4' aluminum dock
     20:  Inv-V at 45'

One laptop crashed 10 min. before the start, so logged by hand on 40, 15 and 
10. We both napped 3-1/2 hours overnight -- pretty casual, eh?

Thanks for all the QSOs!!

73,
Gary K9AY & Jim W0UO
