What happened today:

Today is the day of our Beverage Team. DL8WPX and DL3DXX are running wires through the landscape. At the end of this day, four beverages are up and running (each 600ft). All Beverages are connected to a magic blackbox in the lowband shack. Out of that blackbox come three cables: one for 160m, 80m, and 40m. Every band can independently choose any of the beverages. That's normal standard, but next year we will have a more sophisticated "Y2K update". Beware of the Beverage Team ;-)

In the evening 5C8M could be heard on some bands working "test pileups":
