Don't feel bad Gene, you're not the only one:-)

Seems like that every contest for me.

This time out, I'll be using an "all new" antenna system.

My homebrew Moxon Rectangle for 6 meters.  My homebrew 2 meter yagi with an
8' boom.  And a new CC 11 element yagi for 432.  All of this will be
supported on my new, homebrew push up mast.  Fully lowered the mast will be
8'.  Extended it reaches 27' to the top.  This will all be turned by my
newly repaired AR40 rotator.

The rotator is done.  The mast is done.  The antennas are all assembled,
tested, and working.  Just a few more minor details, and I'm ready.

My 432 transverter just came back from DEM on Saturday with a clean bill of
health, but a slightly low output of 5 watts.  I had hoped to buy an amp
before the contest, but new tires for the truck were more important so it
looks like I will be QRP on 432 for this contest.

Good luck to all,
& be safe.
