Don't know the specifics for this year--but in years past Jay and
Sharon have busted their butts all summer trying to get stuff shipped
to those doing summer-time upgrades and repairs and then they
take off on vacation just before CQWW and try to recoup for a bit
before they do their V26 operation in the CQWW SSB contest.
I assume they are on Antigua by now. And I usually hear from Jay
fairly often--but not this summer. Which only means they have
been busier than ever (their business continues to grow very
rapidly) and probably need this vacation even more than in
previous years.
PLAN AHEAD is probably a good idea. I think it was Dave Leeson
who once said that he never made changes to his station in the
last week or two before a contest. Just too many things that
can go wrong.
