Hey Wayne:
   Yeah, we were relying on 20 & 40 mtr for the heavy runs but Saturday 
afternoon it was not there nor was 6 mtr.. Saturday evening 40 opened up 
pretty good and 80 mtr wasn't too bad but not many stations on 80 (too much 
wire to deal with I guess) - 20 mtr opened just after midnight. Anyway, 
Sunday the doors opened and it was hard and fast. We had all kinds of 
networking problems. Mainly because we were running wireless and the 
distance between the stations was excessive. We made a run into Pensacola 
Sunday morning and bought one of those wireless range extender thingies 
(network repeaters) from Best Buy and we were back in business. We had 9 
operators running 4 low power rigs from 2 generators and I think it adds up 
to 4809 contacts total - I've had enough FD to last me till next June.., 73
