Comments:

Worked a QRP Sweep! Thank you to VO1HP for ruling his 
pileup and getting me through. I raised my score from 
last year. This score last year would have been #3, we'll 
see how much improvement there's been. 

I was well prepared in advance with the Thursday night 
NCCC Sprints and the Friday night practice. All the 
equipment worked fine, but I'm suspicious of a bad audio 
amp in the right rig - makes signals sound warbly.

10m was not as good as a couple weeks ago. It was GOOD, 
but still not INCREDIBLE.  10m was good for the first 
hour, and then for about 3 hrs on Sunday. QRP was easier 
going on 15m and 20m, as many 10m signals were a tad weak. 
I operated 11 hrs straight, took 6 hrs off, and operated 
13 hrs to the end. I think I missed 6 minutes of operating 
time :-)  As usual, K4RO and a couple others had higher 
numbers when I worked them, but I play catch-up well on 
Sunday.

THANK YOU to the many polite ops who asked and answered 
fills, I was trying to make sure I didn't make any 
errors by guessing, and I know my QRP triggers a few 
fills for the listener.

A tiring run, but I'm pleased to have raised my personal 
QRP record.  Is a QRP Sweep Mug just the size of a shot 
glass?
