Comments:

My fourth Sprint.  First time I tried low power and found it to be better than 
HP for me -- I spend too much time retuning the linear when I change bands, and 
I always seem to get rf into the computer when running HP in the Sprint.  I 
don't believe I suffered any from the lower power -- any shortage of QSOs was 
due to operator problems, not lack of power.  I find the Sprint to be an 
intimidating contest, and always get totally confused for a couple of minutes 
at least once during each contest.  When its over, though, I feel like Ernie 
Banks -- "let's play two!"  The allure, I guess, is that I always feel I can do 
better next time, and can't wait for February.
