100% S&P -- My CW listening skills are slowly getting better,
but they are still at a point where I need to listen
a few times to get the exchange

My first attempt at WPX CW from my Harpswell, ME, QTH.
I had a lot of spring cleanup responsibilities, so I
only operated late in the day and early evening.
10 was close to non-existent. 15 & 80 were reasonable, but
I spent most time on 40 & 20 as they were the most active.
I heard some 160 (no antenna -- I load my 6M yagi and the
coax radiates...) but never had a Q.
Even with relatively simple antennas and my lack of code speed,
my biggest hurdle to better scores remains chair time.
