Comments:
We lost 6 1/4 hours of critical operating time when a car hit a power pole with
a high voltage transformer mounted on it just down the road from the station
early Saturday morning, knocking over the pole (which must have had dry rot)
and smashing the transformer. We were not able to get back on the air until
oiwer was restored mid-afternoon and figure that cost us somewhere around 1000
to 1100 QSOs.
The lost time also cause us to sacrifice to run on 10 meters on Sunday more
than would otherwise have made sense in an effort to catch up for missing the
limited 10 meter opening on Saturday (at 11:30 local time on Sunday we still
only had 2 mults on 10 meters).
Nevertheless, we had fun.
As always, thanks for all the contacts and moves!
73,
John
