Comments:

My first contest in several years as I've been mostly living in NYC, 300 miles
away from my station, the last few years and have been (happily) distracted by
my daughter Persephone who was born in Dec 2003.

I've been slowly tearing my station apart in prep for a rebuild to be completed
before the sunspots go big.  Lots of antennas are in various states of disarray.
 I used 160m & 80m 4-Squares fixed NE, a 2L 40m Yagi fixed 60 degrees and a
single 4L SteppIR which was my only rotatable antenna.  I have much more
aluminum on the ground than in the air.

100% S&P and spot-chasing as I was more interested in blowing the cobwebs off
the station than running up a score.  Bounced between a trusty Orion and a new
Flex-5000C.

Worked 3 new DXCCs on 160m.  Great low band conditions.  I had trouble sending
CW a few times during the weekend as my hand just got tired (wasn't using
computer keying).  I guess my CW muscles have atrophied from disuse!

73,
Bill NT1Y
