Great fun, as always.  Started out right on track with my two previous best
efforts (in '02 and '04) - 371 in '02, 378 in '04 and 365 this year in the first
3 hours.  Went to 40 quite a bit earlier than in previous years, and was
rewarded with personal bests on 40 and 80 meters.  However, I paid a price on
the higher bands...  

I never seemed to really get rolling on 15 after the first 90 minutes of the
contest, and 20 was very tough.  I usually find a nice quiet freq high in the
band and run tons of low # A guys who are close to ESP level.  This year I
didn't find that quiet frequency until late Sunday afternoon - and without much
happening on 15 I struggled to keep up with last year's pace (1677 x 80 last
year).  Family commitments kept me from the radio for the last couple of hours,
but given my historical performance during that time I don't think I would have
made it much over 1600 or 1625 anyway.

A very unpleasant visit from a mad neighbor took me off the air for a while in
the 17:00 hour Sunday, and really shook me up mentally. It took me a while to
get my head back in the game - and you can see it in my rate sheet.

Congrats to K6LL for another great showing in U, and thanks to all who make this
such a fun and competitive event.  W4NF and I had a nice chat just before the
contest - despite the fact that we were in direct competition.  That is what
makes this such a grand hobby!
