Comments:

This is a fun contest for a multi-op.  Thanks to K9GX and KT4ZX for coming over 
and making a go of it!

Excuses:

1) My station is clearly not even close to being competitive as a multi-two.  
The antenna for the second station is a ground-mounted all-band vertical.  I 
can make some second radio Qs with it as a SO2R, but the thought of CQing with 
that antenna on 10 or 15 would be laughable at a real multi-op station.

2) It's hard enough as a single op to find something productive to do here in 
the first few hours of NAQP.  10 and 15 are open over your head, but we only 
get some W6 types and the loud Chads in Florida.  In a M/2, it's even more 
dreadful trying to put Qs in the log on TWO unproductive bands at the same 
time.

Compare our line score to K9NS:

      160     80     40     20     15     10
K9NS 199/48 279/51 475/57  99/65 301/54 286/49
N4GN 152/36 358/49 258/54 306/62 102/37  78/22

It's like we were on two different planets!  Congrats to those guys for such 
impressive results from the Black Hole!

Thanks also to K4WW and K4AT at WW4KY for the local challenge!

73,

Tim, N4GN
