Comments:

The last contest I operated from Idaho was the 1979 10M contest.  Put a Hustler
mobile antenna on an old Rohn tripod in the driveway.  Used a card table set up
in the garage for the operating position.  It was 22 degrees in the garage. 
Only did 51 minutes before I couldn't feel the paddles any longer.  Took a
while to remember it was dip the plate then load the coil.  Too many years of
solid state auto tune techno terrors.  Was nostalgic to go back to a tube
radio.  Kind of puts you back in touch with the ether.
