4 hours of pain...as usual. :)

I Just can't seem to get past the 250 qso mark on SSB from here.  Felt weak on 
20m for a while, which is very unusual.  Lowest qso total on 20m in any sprint 
yet.  Had a few stretches of 3-5 mins with zero q's... yuck!  40 and 80 are the 
same old story... everyone with 10 watts to a real antenna beat me out.  Would 
love to do this contest from a real station with 1500 watts.... now that would 
be fun!  :)  My best SSB sprint yet, and a new ID record.  It's fun tryig to 
pick off all of the domestic contest state records from here.  It's more of a 
doable goal than trying to win. :)  I figure a 2 el 40 and a dipole on 80m 
would add about 40 q's.  There were LOTS of guys I heard that never heard me.  
Heard NP4Z on 80m (CQ in face), and XE1/N6AN (CQ in face) for the only mults I 
heard but did not work.  How did you guys get in the 50's????  
  
Congrats to K9PG for that FB score.  He is most definitely the KL.  Also 
congrats to first time sprinter NS4W on a great score for a first time.  Also 
UWU as W9SMC, and N6MJ without 80m and an amp on 40.  

CW Rulz... cu next weekend.
