Were it not for my friends in JA, it would indeed have been a long, lonely
six hours. This year's Golden Ears Award splits ten ways, and goes to
**everyone** who worked me on 80. First time "Assisted" -- what an absolute
blast it is to press a key in CT and instantly QSY to an unbreakable packet
pileup! Maybe this phone stuff isn't so terrible after all . . .
