Comments:

Having never entered a WPX, I dipped my toes into the fray for a couple of hours
using the District of Columbia ARS callsign NW3DC on HF for the first time.  Too
many thought I was LW3DC... as NS3T and others have said, it's the curse of
Super Check Partial!

Lots working against me:  
- Yagi got stuck facing south in a nearby tree 
- 40m RFI locked the Orion in TX mode. 
- Amp wouldn't key
- "New" Orion firmware had some odd quirks I wasn't prepared for. 

That notwithstanding, this is an interesting contest that I hope to enter next
time!
