Goose, W8AV, scanning for mults. Mults are only a big deal in the ARRL contest if you don't get 'em, so we worked pretty hard at it. Dan (K8RF), Noel (W9EFL), and Jeff (KU8E) at Dora's Restaurant. This place is famous as a lunch stop for the American Airlines crew on their two-hour turnaround every afternoon on Provo, as well as being the source of the operating tables for VP5VW in 1995. Thanks, Dora!!

Looks like the photo above, but actually different. Show's Goose's diligence. While most of the gang was relaxing at Dora's, Goose was STILL hunting for points. KU8E in the slow time on 20 meters. Not an operator photo, true, but this photo shows as well as any why we go to the Caribbean. This is February - the dead of winter!!???
