Score as calculated by N1MM logger.

Lots of QRN from very high local winds and storms to the West.  Thanks to
everyone for your patience when I asked for repeats.  It seemed like the static
crashes were pretty much in synch with calls and grid square exchanges.

I went QRT at 0830 with plans to get up at 1130 and finish up the contest with
some grayline opportunities.  After laying in bed for 3 hours, listening to the
howling winds, I was pretty positive the inverted L (or supporting tree) was on
the ground.  When the alarm finally went off at 1130, I made the decision to
try to sleep in and deal with the presumably downed antenna at sunrise.  Bad
decision.  When I finally got up at 12:30 and went outside to survey the area,
I found quite a few tree branches down, but the inverted L (and tree) still
standing.  The band was already hopping with activity.  Oh well.

In spite of the issues above, a great time was had.  It's always a pleasure
working friends (old and new) on 160.

Happy New Year and thanks for the QSOs.

73 - Rick WB8JUI
