Comments:

Never a peep from NWT.  Extra 30 min off time used to enjoy food Sunday evening
I smelled cooking all afternoon.  Maybe I missed NWT during the meal.  If I knew
I was going to be just under 1200 Qs I might have had the meal brought in the
shack and just replaced the messy keyboard later.

Put up simple vees for 20 and 15 to avoid playing with rotor buttons all weekend
and was surprised with the results.  All 79 sections came while CQ'ing.

Many good ops.  Some A and Q scores that are really amazing.  More to learn here
on gathering high rates the first few hours.  

OK section ops N5OT, K5KA, K2BA, K5HP and K8FU in the test.  They keep a fellow
on his toes, set realtime benchmarks and makes sure humble hangs around.
