Not sure if I can format the log per the rules correctly enough to avoid
being DQ'd.  Was more fun than I expected.  Even the first 15 minutes where
I dropped out and reconfigured TR-Log to approximate the LQP rules.  Taking
the Locust at his word I started the event using a NAQP setup.  After 3
frustrating QSOs, I realized I needed the Sprint format so I could alternate
CQs with S&P.  But, then I had to eliminate the serial number and change
messages over from 'NA' to 'LQP'.  With a little bit of clearer thinking I
would have quickly subscribed to the K7SS DANWA school of contesting that
uses pencil paper and a hand key to circumvent software configuration all
together.  But, even this interlude was fun.  Thanks to Locust for setting
this up for us.

73,
