I spent about 10 hours in this one from home.  I also operated most of Saturday
night with a multi-op entry from W4HZ's station with operators W4HZ, WK4Y and
AI4CM using the call AI4CM. SSB is not my preferred mode and I seldom operate
it but I gave it a go to help with the club score.  I screwed up a couple of
times by forgetting to check the running block in N1MM contest logger and was
putting out spots of stations I worked.  I was embarrased I did that and I want
to thank the folks who advised me of my error. 

At home I mainly operated S&P looking for sections with just a few runs on 80
meters.  Unfortunately I missed the sweep by one section.  I never found MS!

Thanks for the Q's!  It was fun in spite of the fact that I felt like a fish
out of water operating a SSB contest.

73,
Puck W4PM
