You guys rock. I was going to put a dedicated effort into the SS, however, with all the wind we had, I ended up working 15 hours for the Sheriffs Office going from funeral to tree to downed power line. Hrump!,... So, as the resident S& P guy, Sunday I put in 6 hours with 180 Qs and 65 sections. (You wonder, "Why does this guy always S&P?" ) Well, many years ago, as a teenager who liked shooting pistols without any hearing protection,...well, anyway, I don't trust myself completely to get the calls correct the first time. (most of the time I do though) Besides, it's a lot of fun anyway. Occasionally I'll stop and run.</div><div class="qtdSeparateBR" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1511191638025_6929" dir="ltr"><br></div><div class="qtdSeparateBR" dir="ltr">73 Marcel<br><br></div><div class="yahoo_quoted" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1511191638025_6794" style="display: block;"> <div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1511191638025_6793" style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"> <div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1511191638025_6792" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> <div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1511191638025_6791" dir="ltr"> <font id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1511191638025_6790" face="Arial" size="2"> <hr size="1" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1511191638025_6801"> <b id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1511191638025_6838"><span id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1511191638025_6837" style="font-weight: bold;">From:</span></b> "lcc-request@louisianacontestclub.org" <lcc-request@louisianacontestclub.org><br> <b id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1511191638025_6836"><span id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1511191638025_6835" style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b> lcc@louisianacontestclub.org <br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Sent:</span></b> Monday, November 20, 2017 12:00 PM<br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Subject:</span></b> LCC Digest, Vol 109, Issue 5<br> </font> </div> <div class="y_msg_container" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1511191638025_6932"><br><div dir="ltr">Send LCC mailing list submissions to<br></div><div dir="ltr"> <a href="mailto:lcc@louisianacontestclub.org" ymailto="mailto:lcc@louisianacontestclub.org">lcc@louisianacontestclub.org</a><br></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit<br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1511191638025_6931" dir="ltr"> <a id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1511191638025_6930" href="http://mail.louisianacontestclub.org/mailman/listinfo/lcc_louisianacontestclub.org" target="_blank">http://mail.louisianacontestclub.org/mailman/listinfo/lcc_louisianacontestclub.org</a><br></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to<br></div><div dir="ltr"> <a href="mailto:lcc-request@louisianacontestclub.org" ymailto="mailto:lcc-request@louisianacontestclub.org">lcc-request@louisianacontestclub.org</a><br></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">You can reach the person managing the list at<br></div><div dir="ltr"> <a href="mailto:lcc-owner@louisianacontestclub.org" ymailto="mailto:lcc-owner@louisianacontestclub.org">lcc-owner@louisianacontestclub.org</a><br></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific<br></div><div dir="ltr">than "Re: Contents of LCC digest..."<br></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Today's Topics:<br></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr"> 1.
