2R-QSOs: 367

I was doing the two-radio CW thing when condx took a dive about 3 1/2 hours
into the contest and I started thinking how to get the rate back over 100/h. 
Also thought how nice it would be to put some additional phone QSOs into the
log!  Well, I plugged in a MIC and the rate DID go up...

The nice sporadic opening boosted the overall QSO numbers but hurt the DX
totals.  During the evening I gave up on some better NA runs to fire out a CQ
on the low bands.  This produced some nice AS/OC mults I would have missed
otherwise. 

I would have LOVED to have a second antenna pointed towards PY.  Everyone was
(equally) weak from the side/back, except on 10m.
