Comments:

I sort of made this into a Sprint contest, only putting in just over 10 hours. 
I had a great time!  Worked my first ever California (N6AA followed by AC6DD),
Washington (WA7LT), Oregon (RAT), AZ (N7DD), and NM (N5IA) using QRP on 160m;
and I've been qrp on 160 a looooong time!

Rig:  Elecraft K2/qrp only version (1st K3 is in transit, should be here Jan
30; 2nd one to ship later, ordered Nov 21, 2007)

Antenna:  1/2 wave horizontal wire with center at 44 feet and ends at six (6)
feet.  I like the description that KU2M gave it: "A clothes line."  Perfect! 

Best "10 QSO rate" was 169.8 per hour, while calling CQ.  Too bad it only
lasted 10 qso's.  LOL
