        Forgot all about this contest until I saw a post on the 
Packetcluster. Shut down the cluster access and fired up TR and
started in. There was only 4.5 hours to go in the contest :-(
Low band conditions were very good especially 80m (my favorite band).
Bill, W4AN, asked me to qsy through the bands. When he mentioned 10m
I said to myself, "He's on drugs!". We went to 10m and he had a very
good signal. We went through all bands except 20m (having SWR problems
on that band). Later Tyler, K3MM, my fellow RTTY contester called in
and we did the same. I didn't think we would make it on the higher
qrg's but we did. 
        Had a lot of fun but wish I had remembered this contest sooner.
I only worked one other RI station and I suspect he was not very active.
        73, Jeff
