This is to certify that in this contest we never knowingly nicked anyone

else's frequency, always called 'QRL?' at least a couple of times and
tried to make sure we were at least 250Hz from anybody else.  Are we
alone?
By the way, is anybody else disquieted by the apparent drop-off in dx
multipliers this year, too?
Our intent was to maximise points so we dispensed with any notion of
dancing
around silly band-change rules, freeing us both to run wild.  Which for
quite significant chunks of time we simultaneously did;  otherwise
mostly
Dale went forth and multiplied, at which he excels, whilst my tuning
dial
might as well have rusted stuck, running.

73 and thanks for all the contacts!      Steve,   W3EEE
