Comments:

Rig and Antennas:
-- FT-920 (about 90 watts out for RTTY)
-- 40m inverted Vee at 30 ft.
-- 80m dipole at 30 ft. max.
-- DF4SA Spider Beam at 27 ft.
-- N1MM Logger and MMTTY

Got off to a slow start, stayed slow till final hour. 40M takes a while to
warm up at this QTH, but when it's hot, it's hot -- at least for close-in
states. 

Had a super time, and although this is my lowest score so far, it's a personal
best by 1 Q (score is a bit lower due to far fewer mults this time). I think I
am getting a bit swifter with the tuning and leapfrogging, but propagation just
wasn't that good tonight. 

Wanted to do more for the Black Hole gang, but I guess being in a black hole
played out pretty much as expected, hi.

For comparison:

Sprint      Qs   Mults  Points
==============================
Oct. 2002   95     22    2090

Thanks for the QSOs! See everyone in the next sprints with better, higher
antennas.
