Soapbox:  What a blast!!  I was keeping up with the "big boys" till 
I moved to 40.  These verticals ain't the best for domestic 
contesting.  I guess I'll have to get some wire up in a tree 
before SS.  Didn't know about the 3 qso rule and missed a bunch of 
Q's at the start.  Sorry I kept telling everyone they were a dupe.  
I couldn't figure why they kept calling me after we had already 
worked :-)  Oh well, live and learn. Thanks to Wayne and the NCJ 
for a neat contest.  Maybe next time we can get a bit more 
advertising.  Now all I got to do is figure how to score this thing.
73 and CU in the JARTS!
