Comments:

Poor antennas for 10 and 15 hurt a little at the start, but I was on track with
a better than 100Q/hr average until the 7th hour.  Stayed on the bands when I
would have left, due to watching a huge thunderstorm front approach...knew I
would be QRT when I didn't want to and had to log time early.  Stuck in the
chair too long as the storm came in and just about got thrown out of the chair
by close strikes - played it a little too close.  Lots of snapping around the
shack, but nothing fried.  The open wire feeders don't like running wet -
things got challenging.
Still got in the 10 hours, but missed some prime time and the QRN was really
tough.
Signals were good, just lots of QRN.  This is a fun contest. Moving folks was
hard - a lot of guys don't seem to understand the question....

Amplifiers would have been nice.
