4.75 hours operated
Station: FT-757GX + Alpha Delta 80-10m multiband dipole left tangled
in pine trees at 35' by Hurricane Georges, fed thru MFJ tuner
to somehow work on 160, and pumped to 400W by LA-1000A amp
so that anyone might be able to hear me.

Total 171 x 53 x 2 == 18,126 points
I'm just pleased as punch to have worked 40 states + VE3 with this setup.
Missed AZ, DE, ID, ME, NE, NH, ND, SD.
QRN not a factor at all even though the wx feels like summer --
temp == 74F at 4:30 am as I type this.
CU next week from K5MDX,
