"Judicial System Stops Contestor".
Well that's my headline.
The story is not quite as interesting.
I got placed on a jury 7 days before the ARRL SSB contest.
"But your honor I have a contest to operate......"
Hmmm I didnt think that would work.
We finally came up with a verdict Friday night 30 mins into the contest.
Since my contest station I use (WC6H) is 2 hrs away there was not much
chance to limit the damage. Besides I was tired and I already had called
Rich the night before and canceled.
So....that ends my string of 5 consecutive Pacific Division wins......Oh
well.
I knew it couldn't last forever, but that's not the way I imagined it would
stop.
Hope you all had fun!

PS Anybody here try to get off a jury due to a contest?
Id like to know if you had any luck!
My judge had no sense of humor! :-)
