Comments:
I met my goals: 100K and a sweep. Hit the 100K mark well before I had the last
section. Nebraska was found late on my last 40M sweep before I camped out on
80M. Finding NT and NL were not too tricky this year but a real treat in any
case. It was very great to hear so many familiar calls. Hey y'all!
I had dismal 15 and 10M antenna choices but 20M wasn't bad for a change. I put
up an EDZ for the west coast last weekend and it played pretty well on 20M.
Wished many times for a rotatable gain antenna...maybe, someday.
The bands sounded pretty good albeit slightly noisy. I liked how short 20M was
especially on Sunday afternoon.
I was bothered by intermittent wide-band noise on 80 and 40M. My special
thanks to operators who patiently waited at my request so we could finish the Q
(and be glad you didn't hear the string of profanity while I waited for the
noise to subside.) In fact, thanks to all who could pull my puny signal out of
the noise and for your patience with my stumbles.

Is there a Q-signal for a string of profanity? If not there should be.
