Wow...what a weekend.  I tried to use my CW log as a guide of "where to be
when."  At 2300 on day 1 on cw, I had 803 qso's.  At 2300 on day 1 on ssb, I
had 803 qso's....whoa...scarey!

Unlike cw, I found it very difficult to "run."  Also unlike cw, 40 was very
tough...down about 100 qso's compared to the first weekend.

Was totally blown away by the incredible 10m opening to JA both days...just
lastest for hours and hours.

As for sleep, not a problem...I had LOTS of that.  Figure I lost about 50 qso's
while taking an "extra" 3 hours in the bed.  Well worth it on ssb (no DVK
here).

Wonder who else was out there qrp?  I'm told old record was 716k.  I'm happy.
