Comments:

WPX RTTY doesn't have a QRP category, and I sure missed it.
But with no sunspots, high A and K indexes, and operating from 
the Pacific Northwest - it seemed a lot like operating QRP!
Contacts were 75% from North America, even though I tried and 
tried to work some DX. 20m barely stayed open for the start of 
the contest and a handful of Pacific stations. Then it was 
slugging-it-out on 40m for the evening, but never managed to 
work a European, only NA and SA. I even got up at 3AM local 
time to work the JAs on 80m and 40m - got 23 of them in one 
hour and went back to sleep.  The mornings provided only two 
dozen Europeans on 20m. 15m was only for South America, and 
didn't bother with 10m. I finished at about 75% of my hopes,
but that leaves me room to improve next time.

A few overdriven signals, a few rude frequency stealers.
But, many good ears and great ops, thanks!
