Comments:

I just never seemed to be in the right place at the right time for this one.
Conditions were different.  I've never had so much trouble finding run
frequencies on 40 and 80!  It's amazing how crowded the bands were.

This is the first time I've tried to use most of the features of TR-Log
on SSB.  I still have a lot to learn.  However, my biggest problem is
getting the strategy even close to right...what bands to be on when,
when to take time off, etc.  I should sneak a web cam and bug into
K3ZO's shack... :-)

I missed NT for the sweep.  I heard them a couple of times, REALLY
WEAK.  I decided it would take to long to even try to work them.  I
kept hoping propagation would improve!  No mug this year...missed them
on CW too.  On the positive side, had my best hour ever in SSB SS
(116).

Thanks as usual to John Evans, N3HBX, for the use of his fine station.
