The only contests I like are the FMTs. Unfortunately I was busy moving my
parents into assisted living last week. No opportunity to get ready for the
FMT or time to actually participate. I didn't get home until it was
all over.

I used only the Flex-5000 and its scope no fancy outboard frequency
standard or software. Several signals seemed quite spongy probably due to
Doppler. I had little confidence in any of my readings, which was quite
frustrating.
I didn't get home from work in time for the two 20 meter runs. On
Yes, a nice Flex showing, except for my own 14 Hz error. Recalculated
this morning and get only 158 mHz error on the 160 run. NOT my Flex
5000a's fault - must have been the pencil I used (had trouble with
them in elementary school, too, IIRC). Connie doesn't give Mulligans, darn it.

Results are out at www.k5cm.com . From my limited experience, the K5CM FMTs
attract the real experts. Competition is a bit easier in the ARRL events.
Another nice showing by the Flex contingent.

Those of us using the 5000a in FMTs have discovered it often does
_very_ well, often within millihertz.
Several have high-precision GPSDO10MHz reference oscillators a
