Yuk.  Switched logging software, first time using N1MM for CW.  Bad idea!  Exercise in complete lid-dom. I should have waited until I learned what I was doing.  The software was operating a different contest than I was, I think.  Sending wrong numbers, wrong buffers, to fast and too slow... I hope nobody gets dinged wrongly, I have to do more research on why the software sends what and when.  I think I barely operated 2.5 of the 4 hours, had to stop a bunch to try and figure out what the heck was going on.  I'm sure loggin errors are abismally high.  Numerous TX errors, QSYing before I finished correcting them by hand on-the-fly... Lots of cursing.  80% hand keyed, so more apologies for QLF.  I'll be embarrassed when the log is checked.  This should probably just be a checklog.....

Excuses aside, I've got a few of the antennas on the first tower here at the new place.  Been in the air more than on the air since Feb.  Things can only get better, huh? 

73,
Blake N4GI
