I never heard AK.  The only single qso sections were WY, ND and  NT.
 
I wanted to operate 24 hours, but I did not leave any room for error.   As it 
turned out I missed 15 minutes from home when a storm blew through  Sunday 
morning, and then later lost power at W8AJ from the winds of the same  storm.  
That forced a premature departure for K8AZ, and resulted in  more lost time 
when I was driving back to finish up from W8AJ with the  contest still going on.  
 
 
 
Multi station is clearly the best way to do SS, but I think it's even  more 
fun running the pileups while seeing the countryside as a mobile in a good  
state qso party, than staring at two radios in a basement.
