So, Sunday Morning @ 8 AM I saw TO5M spotted. I heard the Old Man being
blasted by QRM.
Real soon he said "UP 5". A few Seconds later he said "Up five, 1s only".
That worked for him. I listened. He worked Ones for @ 20 mins. Then he said
"Twos only, TO5m number 2 up five". He worked twos for @20 mins.
I waited, I listened. -- I layed out my church clothes. I brushed my teeth.
I kept waiting and listening. I shaved my chin. I kept listening. 20 mins
later..... He started working Threes.....
I figured I had 35 -40 mins until he got to FIVES so I got in the
shower.... Suddenly through the noise of the water I heard the Old Man say
TO5M FIVES! -- I didnt rinse, I didnt even dry off. I jumped out of the
shower grabbing my towel and ran to the radio! --- He worked @ 8 FIVES.
none were ME. (yea, I got BEAT by 8 other Hams.). Then he said "'OK,
Sixes".... I called one more time, but he didnt budge from "Sixes".
I gave up, got back in the shower and rinsed.
Went on to Church & Wal-Mart.
--------------------------
THEN THIS AFTERNOON,,, Don Banta said TO5M was still on 14.250 !
I worked them easily this afternoon,,,,
after having tried SO HARD this morning.
Is there a moral to this Story? Yes, and you already know what it is.

That's my Story, and I'm sticking to it....
