Comments:

Started out great for the first 5 hours, then received one of ham radio
operators most dreaded phone calls.  Next door neighbor was trying to watch a
movie on TV, but couldn't due to RFI. Being really good neighbors (even let me
run radials in their backyard), I QRT till their movie was over then reduced
power the rest of the evening.

They have been using ATT U-Verse TV-Phone-Wireless for over a year now, and
indicated this problem cropped up several weeks ago.  Did some testing today
(Monday), and found it is coming thru their CAT-5 phone cable on all bands. 
Seems to be tolerable when I transmit at 100 watts, but quite bad at a
kilowatt. So we are going to get an ATT service tech out and resolve this
together hopefully.

Was hoping to reach 1,000 QSOs, but when rates got so slow Sunday afternoon I
pulled the plug.  Had 79 sections pretty quickly, and finally got VY1EI Sunday
morning for the sweep.  Bands were super quiet, nice on the ears.
