Comments:

Just a few things to remember for next NAQP…..

·	Read the rules PRIOR to the contest and not during!  Realized I needed to 
take two hours off at my sunset.  This killed my 40-80 Meter Q’s and Mults.
·	Do not take off during a 120/hr run on 40 after finding out you need to take 
two hours off, when you have 4 hours left in the contest!!
·	Do not operate the last hour without 160!!  80 was pretty much dead during 
this time..
·	Install a 160 antenna for the contest!  
·	Started SO2R and things were going well….Then the display on my New FT-1000 
MRK-V went blank after just an hour or so.  (Second MRK-V that has died like 
this in just two weeks)  Then I was single radio for the rest of the contest…
·	S-9 Line noise on 10 meters…. 
·	Do not think of  “Work” during the contest!! ;-)

Still had a great time for this being my first real contest in the past few 
years.  Time to get back into the fun!   Congrats to N2IC for an awesome 
effort!!
