and planned to enter the M/S category, but after review of the log and<BR>reading and re-reading the rules, we had apparently 3 violations of the 10<BR>minute rule.

But had we planned to operate<BR>M/2, I believe our score would have been much, much better. There was a lot to<BR>work. AND we did only S&P... <BR><BR>This was our first operation from the new KN5O shack.. Ran out of space in the<BR>rear master bedroom office. Plus XYL just finished chemo 3 weeks earlier. <BR>(She was feeling good and was really very understanding about hosting the<BR>operation for our team, so we planned a nice dinner outing for the XYLs this<BR>week). Anyway, we now have 2x/3x the operating space and plenty of cables for<BR>more antennas,
control lines and operating position communication upgrades.<BR><BR>Also, just the day before contest, we had completed installation of 2 of a<BR>planned 3 phased vertical array for 80m. I used a Comtek phasing unit, but<BR>will eventually get the Array Solutions triangular phasing unit installed. So<BR>even though not optimized, our 80m results were nearly 300% better than last<BR>years' posting.<BR><BR>15M was our best band for the buck.. We spent the least percentage of our time<BR>there for the most contacts. 10M showed some life finally - worked a couple of<BR>EU and AF stations - besides SA and Caribbean.<BR><BR>20M was tough for us - lots of QRM, but we did about same as last year.. 40M<BR>seemed tougher this year. Harder to bust pileups... Not much to say about<BR>160M.. With only a dipole at 70 ft., not much you can do from here except work<BR>the US and Caribbean fairly regularly, which we did..<BR><BR>On behalf
of our team, thanks to all who gave us Qs and Mults..
