Comments:

All my operation was from the car while driving to and from errands and a
holiday party. My goals in this contest were simple:

I wanted to work members of CTDXCC to give them points.

I wanted to have the courage to work CW while driving. Before this weekend I
had always stopped or pulled over before working semi-mobile CW. This weekend I
was finally brave enough to answer one CQ while driving 65 mph on US 183. After
that it was easy to make a few more fully-mobile QSOs. 

The hard part was logging. I tried to memorize the call and the exchange and
then write it down while stopped at the next traffic light. Next time I will
follow the advice from K5NA and use a tape recorder.
