Well lets see... 1 hr into contest the wife comes in and says the ovens on
fire! Damn RF in the shack. She was cleaning it and of course leftovers in
the oven BURN! When i swing down to 40m after verifying the house wont burn
down, there really is RF in the shack and its getting into the mic. Project
#1 more grounding. Switch mike and have a good time in s&p mode. Goal is to
learn  n1mm and get the sweep. Back on today off and on throughout the day.
Got news of a death in the family so that shot the contest drive. Better
luck next time. Had more fun than I have had on the radio in a while.  Still
short of the sweep!
