Comments:

Definately was the best I have done in years.  I have been active in SS 
competitively for only 5 years now and I have a theory about a person's outcome 
based on whether they have the "Force" with them or not.  The last 3 years, I 
have not felt it going into the contest and it proved to be true based on my 
resulting scores.  This year I felt something different going into the contest. 
 I felt much more comfortable and I had amazing focus.  I have to believe that 
the mental preparation and physical rest paid off big, of course with help from 
the "Force".  :-)

I also have to thank the Gator N5RZ, K6LL, K4XS, W0SD, and VE7CC among a few 
others for keeping it a tight race.  If running neck to neck with these guys 
ain't motivation, I don't know what is!!

Also, thanks to Glenn's family for putting up with me screaming "89 San 
Diego!!" about 3 million times this weekend.  I don't know how they do it :)
It is always great to exercise the hardware at K6NA.

One of these days, I will figure out this 2 radio stuff to help my score a 
little more as well.  I have been a 1-radio kind of guy for way too long.

Thanks to everyone for the Q's!!
See you in the next one,
