Wow.  What a fun contest!

Was just going to play around and make sure the station was ready for contest
season.  Had a goal of making 800 QSOs or so.  Was having so much fun I couldn't
stop operating!  Ended up with 20 hours, but lots of breaks.

Almost never break 100 QSOs/hour on RTTY and did it 3 hours in a row.  All
thanks to the extra QSOs from the second radio.  RTTY contests are ideal for
practicing and improving SO2R technique.  You get to do all the practice of
operating and switching, while the computer does the job of copying.

The RTTY ops just keep getting better and better.  Only a few guys would call by
sending their call 6 to 9 times.  And if you are calling someone, why add "PSE"
at the end???

Great to see so many of the new European calls. The future of contesting looks
bright.  We need more activity from the USA.  Many easy multipliers were
missed.

WriteLog is unbelievable.  I just used the stock product and it seemed to be
able to copy anything.  And the SO2R support is superb.
