Comments:

 This is the contest which demonstrates who the best operators
 are, both in score and in hearing them on the air.  Operating
 the CW Sprint is such a blast, because you get to work the best
 of the best, and learn as you go.

 Highlights:
 -----------
 W4AN's FB team-gathering effort.

 Hearing VE3EJ on the air after what must have been an
 incredibly traumatic experience.  Glad you're OK John.

 The tribute to Sharp.  I never knew the man, but from what
 I hear he was a FB beacon of a contester.

 My best start ever in the Sprint.  I know I can do 300+ if I
 can learn to keep my head together when it gets frustrating.

 The station worked great.  Literally no problems at all.

 The DX Sprinters.
 
 Lowlights:
 ----------

 The QRN.  80 meters was not the usual rate-fest.
 Falling down after my best start ever.  I thought 300+
 was in reach, but then I just fell apart.


 Bottom line:
 -----------
 My skills are improving, but I've still got a lot of learning
 to look forward to.  I guess that's what makes this so fun.
 Want to know how well you really measure up as an operator?
 Want an incredible 4-hour adrenaline rush?   Try the Sprint.
 You'll get both.  C U in February.  -Kirk  K4RO
