That was good fun!

First, sincere apologies for missing the CW part. I caught a really bad stomach
bug last Friday and really felt quite worthless the whole weekend. I really
hated having to miss one of my favourite events.

I had 3 tests and 2 presentations this week so this was a really nice way to
blow off some anxiety. What a bunch of great ops. I op'd the first hour and
quit with 69Q and 35M...my best start ever. I watched the Texas-Texas Tech game
until the start of the 4th quarter at 0300 and came back to the action. 80m
sounded pretty good here with some huge signals. I ran the AL80B at about 200w
since I can't get much more out of it on our terrible grid in the city. 

And to think it's been a whole year since I did this QRP/battery power due to
Hurricane Ike.

Texas QSO Party is next weekend! Chuck, NO5W, has been doing a great job of
rounding up the troops, as it were. I'll be part of the NX5M Multi-op and
mobile on Saturday night in WASH, BURL, and BZOS counties.

Colin is way too hard on the radio; what were my parents thinking?
