20 meters was very good to me.  I ended up with:

601 Q's by 148 mults for 88,948.

Add this score to the Sultans of Schwing team #2.

Wow, was this fun.  Didn't use the second radio much till later.  Too hard with
the higher rate in the beginning.  I held my 20M freq for SIX hours (14.250,
the suggested frequency).  The first four hours rate:
145   101   101   110
I should have done like others and been on 10M, but it's hard to leave a band
you're smokin' on.

I wish I had a quarter for every time someone said, "You're the loudest signal
on the band!" (20M)  For the curious, it's 5/5/5 el monobanders,  53' booms at
56'/112'/168'.  Never thought that these low angle antennas would work at all
for stateside (no upper/lower switches).

Got the 170' crane stuck in the (KS9K's) yard Sunday morning, otherwise the 3/3
stack on 40 would be back up by now.

Hat's off to my fellow Sultan of Shwing'ers.  The Midwest really put on a show.
 Thanks to all for the Q's.

Mark, KI7WX, was going to come down to the Rancho and do a KB effort,
but his plans were dashed at the last minute. Reluctantly, I sat down
and put in 10 hours. It seemed like Utah had become the new black hole.
I was getting out fairly well, but we had lots of QRN and no propagation
to speak of on 15 and 10. Enough of my complaining - here are the
numbers...

Band    QSOs   Mult
160      9       5
 80     44      18
 40    133      36
 20    376      46
 15      5       4
 10      2       2

T      569     111     63,159

Team:   SCCC #2

States missed:  Maine, Vermont.
"DX" worked:    Mexico, Cayman Is.

Just some more roadkill on the Information SuperHighway...
