Comments:

I decided to practice SO2R again tonight, sorry for all 
the goofs... 

First my left radio was working, and I got my quick QSO 
with K7SS, then I shifted my attention to the right radio
which didn't sound right, and found it was still set for 
RTTY from the weekend!  Maybe I should have just worked 
that big RTTY pileup on 40m again.  By the time I got it 
correct, I had already missed my other 20m possibilites 
of W7OM and KK7S - they were already off to 40m! I didn't 
find anyone else on 20m that late (3 minutes). That 
killed the 20m score...

40m was OK, with 18 QSOs and 15 Mults in 16 minutes. 
Signals maybe a bit weaker than usual, but workable.

80m had all the usual west coast guys, for 8 x 3. Thanks!
 
I spent SIX minutes on 160m (thanks to the second radio)
and got 3 x 2. Actually for a lot of that time I was 
frantically jiggling the darn intermittent headphone 
cable, trying to get it solid, and hitting the CQ on 
the other radio - not the smoothest operating technique!  

So, with the bad start on 20m I'm not surprised my score 
was down, but NS is still F-U-N! Thanks!
