Wow what a contest, and cold too.
As an operator of the N2JMH/r I had the time of my life again this time out.
Thanks to Jim JMH, the rover was built to NASA standards and nothing went
wrong during the scheduled orbit. Cold feet was the only complaint from the
rear of the ships workers. Hi activity on the bands took presidence over the
numb feeling in your feet. A powered up demi txv makes a great sock warmer.
Just apply the damp cold sock over the txv and allow 20minutes drytime. Re
install on human foot and your done. Normally 2 transverters are required
but certain individuals may require olny 1.
Special thanks to all the uWave operators that had patience with me. The
rover has a true heading if we can set up,park, facing N. Normally we
calibrate with a compass but that requires going out of the ship. Cold!!!
Its now 24 hours closer to the next contest!
