This was my personal best all time from Stateside in CQWW. 
Felt great through Saturday nite and thought I could make it without sleep, but
then at about 1AM found that whenever I closed my eyes, even to blink, they rolled
up into my head! Crashed for 5 hours. Woke up and felt great except about the sleeping!

It's been a few years since I've had a linear so can't tell how much was was the amp,
how much was the condx, and how much was me. (Though I've found that now at age 46, the
slope on the trend line on "me" has turned negative.)
