Apologies to Team #2.

The 2:00pm squall line dropped a tree across the power lines up the 
block, dropping power, closing the street to thru traffic, and breaking 
a utility pole.  We were dark for about 15 hours(restored 5:00am 
Sunday), along with about 30 other houses.  Only two houses away from 
civilization and the lights of the Big City.....

:(

On the up side I was tuning around right before the start of the test 
and found ve5mx on 15m.  My QSO#1, after he worked a few others first.

Logged him a bit later on 10m - he had a really nice signal on 10m.

Not sure how many Q's yet, but I was casually S&P before going dark so 
it ain't near as many as it could have been.  Then there was that tough 
choice of pulling out the genny to go full-FD-in-the-rain or 
dinner-anna-moovee with the xyl.

So.  Dinner was nice.  ;)
