 Soapbox Comments
 ________________

W4WA & I were going to put together a little M/S operation and go head to
head 
with NQ4I's M/S, but first Rick's M/S vaporized, and then we couldn't get our 
other operators, so we decided to do a couple of single band efforts to mess 
around in the contest (I still got to go head-to-head with Rick, as he was
also 
15m single band!).

This is the first time I've done a single band effort seriously, and it's a
fun 
way to contest...I got 15 and Ronnie got 10...we were able to get plenty of 
sleep during normal hours, but still put in "serious" efforts.

I'm sure my multiplier was way too low...I didn't spend any time at all 
cruising for mults on Saturday...and not as much as I'd planned on Sunday, as 
the rates were still going fairly well then.  I guess operating multi-op has 
gotten me too dependent on packet for mults...just like K4NO mentioned.

Oh well...I'll have to try this again sometime.  See y'all in the 160 'test 
next weekend!
