Here we are, 8 hours into the contest, and already improving over last year’s score.  We’re hoping the European run in the morning will push us well over the top.  Having an extra radio thanks to Thorsten Prutz, K5TCP, has helped out immensly. 

We spent all afternoon working on antennas, and of the 2 new ones that we put up one isn’t working.  The small tribander is working, however, and should come in really useful in the morning, granted that storms tonight don’t take it down. 

If you’re trying to reach me, send me an email; I’ll have my phone off until about 7:00 Sunday.  If it’s an emergency, call my girlfriend, she knows how to get in touch with me quickly.
