How did folks do on Field Day this year?

Any good stories?

I participated at K3TU, in class 2A (+VHF/UHF). We made 949 QSOs (509
CW, 440 'phone). Condx were good (20 meter QSOs at 2 AM!) the weather
was tolerable and no major breakdowns. Saw lots of old friends and
made some new ones.

Just 363 days to the next one!

... Class: 2E
... Ops: N7MCG (Phone), WA7PRC (CW)
... Phone QSOs: 137
... CW QSOs: 315
... 100% Emergency Power + Message to Section Manager bonuses
... Rigs: TS120S (CW) and TS130S (Phone)
... Antennas: 80m cage inverted vee, 40/15m dipole, halfwave 20m vertical,
Cushcraft A3S yagi
... Power Source: 4 x Group27 wet cells in parallel (320Ah)

Not the best effort (total points: 1734) but I had fun operating at home for
a change, with my longtime friend Evan N7MCG. We used my 'little' FD
battery pack to run the rigs -- adequate power was NOT an issue. 40m was by
far the payoff band for CW; 20m produced the most Qs on phone. 15m produced
only a few Qs. 10m was d-e-a-d when I checked periodically. I finally got
the Rigblaster Pro to work w/o RFI (Evan was happy to not have a hoarse
voice afterward).
