Comments:

I've never really paid much attention to WPX.  Don't know why.  I got the OK to
use the W1AW/5 call sign during our VOTA week, both to have some fun and to
bolster the NM state QSO totals.  I think it may become one of my favorite
events.

I didn't have any strategy except to maximize raw QSO numbers: run, run, run. 
The points/QSO and mult strategy are yet to be learned. Eye-opening!

Thanks for all the QSOs (except for the ~80 dupes caused by erroneous [I hope]
cluster spots that regularly caused dupe-clusters of 5-8 in a row)!

Good workout for my new IC-7610.

Station: IC-7610 + Mercury iiiS ~1kW max
80: quarter-wave wire vertical
40: dipole @80'
20: dipole @75'
15-10: 1977 model Hy-gain DB-1015A trap duo-bander @30'
