Soapbox : Just a guess, but I'd say that about 50% of stations worked  
didn't move the S-meter. This was similar to VHF contesting. Vy.  
little MS, and no AU, even backscatter was minimal, or so it seemed.  
Murphy plagued my main computer--apparently RF caused reboots. Since  
I've done so little operating on 10M since I bought it, I wasn't aware  
of the problem. Luckily, a spare was available. The PIEXX board in the  
930 works very. well (a new addition) and N1MM was nearly flawless.

Many thanks to all for their patience to complete QSOs, and most  
definitely to Lee and Phil for their "hammering away" to put Qs in the  
log at this low point in the solar cycle. -SO
