As luck would have it many other things came up this weekend and I couldn't
make a big effort.  The higher bands were not good.  I tried CQ's on 15 and 10
and had no QSO's.  20 was OK for the time I spent there but I thought
conditions were rather poor.  I tried 160 at the end but very few guys showed
up on that band. Thank goodness for 80 and 40! 

It's interesting that only 69 of my QSO's were with VA stations and I spent a
lot time on 80M where I should hear them.  Were they all on SSB?  Is CW dying
in VA?  I also only QSO'd one mobile station.  Perhaps they were all just
calling CQ.  I did very little S&P due to my limited time avaiable.

CU& next year with a bigger effort I hope. Thanks for the Q's, especially those
who sent NR 1!
