My special formula for (un)success:

TIME    ACTIVITY
----------------------------------------------------
8/7/99
1000Z   Wake up in Salt Lake City after 2 weeks there.
1200Z   Leave SLC via 737
1430Z   Leave Denver via 777
1730Z   Arrive Washington, Dulles
1820Z   Arrive home via taxi
1837Z   First QSO in NAQP, feeling about half...
2210Z   Family arrives home, have dinner
2315Z   Back at it on 40M with good rates
8/8/99
0145Z   Decide to check 80M, QRN, head vy fuzzy...
0200Z   Crash heavily, sleep 12 hours...

It was fun while it lasted, or rather while I lasted. TNX for the patience
while moving to other bands, guys. 

By the way, I actually PLANNED my schedule so that I would be able to get
home and play in the contest; I just didn't realize how beat I would be
after two weeks of 12-hour days in SLC and traveling for 6 hours. Well,
live and learn, I guess.

73 - John, W4AU
