 ________________

Prior commitments, including the excellent W5 DX Bash on Friday and Saturday,
limited my operating time.  Working up to 100 QSOs before the end of the 
contest was much more of a struggle than I anticipated.  I don't understand
why the contest finishes so early on Sunday, though.  My rate was just 
starting to pick up as the evening approached.
