Comments:

I have been partipating in SSCW for 20 years now, and I have never worked all 80
sections in the first 10 hours. I also wanted to try something different by
starting on 20 meters and moving to 40 meters sooner than in other years in the
past, saving 15/10 meters for Sunday. 15/20 did close earlier Saturday than
other years. Worked VI/PR on 40 meters, never did that before, but I'll take
it. Sunday morning I decided to start on 40 meters, and moved to 20 meters way
later than usually. Ran and ran on 20 meters, and I wondered why move to 15
when rates are pretty good on 20? Listened to 15 meters and it sounded Ok, I
better get up there. Worked 13 stations in 30 minutes and thought why did I
leave 20? Back on 20 and ran it into the ground around 0000Z. Then hit the
wall! Slow rates on 40 and 80 meters for 3 hours, and wondered where everyone
went, or I just worked them out. Never heard a peep out of 10 meters. Thank
you, all of the GMCC members that worked me and hope to work everyone next
year.
