>Started out with a BANG, and ended with a whisper. First hour on 20 of 82 Qs 
>was great fun. With everyone baling to 40 after hour 1, had to shift down a
>gear and a band. CQing didnt work. Wound up getting about 1/2 of answers to
>calling others. Two hours on 40 w/ a quarter sloper and 100W is a very
>different ball game than 20m w/ a beam. 
>Then down to 80 which meant a shift to an even lower gear...and lots of AGN?
>and "dididumdumdidi". So what started as a sprint wound up as a slow stroll up
>and down the band trying to find someone who didnt have a bunch of callers at
>the end of their QSO. East Coast KW boys were very strong but unworkable on 80
>from here.

>Paper logged as usual, and may or may not try to type it into N1MM and send it

>Still, however, the best time in radio sport ! Thanks to all who help keep the
>SPRINT viable and fun. And I credit the THURSDAY NITE 30 minute NCCC Sprint NS 
>to making it possible to ID someone calling and know their name and state, with
>just the smallest bit of signal. It really speeds things up.
