02/03/2008 | N5VU In spite of it all (or lack of "all") I had a blast! This is the first time that I ever submitted a log to a contest. I think that Lousiana had about 8 log entries. Of those eight, the winner was a QRP station that kicked our butts! It appears that I made #2 in the High Power class with about 11,500 points. I can't remember ever seeing the S-Meter move off of Zero but stations were there. Hats off to all of those Low power and QRP station for making a showing. Me, I was throwing about 500 Watts from my SB-200 into an inverted vee. Most of my contacts were CW. Better luck next year!. 73, Marcel -- N5VU
