Comments:

Finally during all these years of contesting we too actually had some equipment
trouble.

High winds caused the rotor on Tower #1 to slip and thus no directional control
until Mark (K1RX) put on his wind breaker, climbed the tower and fixed the
problem.  Most of Saturday afternoon the lower stack was pointed toward Easter
Island.  No we didn't work anyone there although HC8N was really loud.

Lost 40 meters for two hours early Saturday evening due to an "unknown" problem
which caused high SWR.  Swapped the connectors on the hardline and accidently
shutdown 10 meters.  Replaced the connectors back and 10 meters returned to
life.  Replaced an Alpha 89 amp on 40 with an SB-220 and that band was back in
service.

Thanks to SV1AOW who showed up on 80 meters late in the contest at our sked
request earlier that afternoon. Also thanks to the many operators who QSY'ed to
other bands for us.
