Comments:
My first Sweep! I got NT very early in the contest Saturday and was fairly
smooth sailing for the rest. The last two I needed were MB and NLI of all
places. Anyway, took a while but got MB for the sweep around 1:00 pm local
time. Once I achieved my goal of sweep, I just gave points out here and there
and ran for a little bit, which is something I normally don't do. 
Band conditions were very good this year. I notice more people are reporting
sweeps than in years past, and also I worked a lot of QRP stations. That's good
news and I chalk that up to propagation.
A couple of things I observed. If you take over a frequency to run, either
listen first, do a QRL? or even a ? but more importantly give someone a chance
to say yes or no that a frequency is in use.
Looking forward to the November SS Phone, but not looking for a double sweep
this year.
