Comments:

You guys finally got your revenge on me - QRP Night!
And the frosting-on-top was the terrible propagation.

I was busy in the morning, and traveled up to NN7SS the rest 
of the day. When I got there, the shack was still in RTTY-mode 
from the last contest, so I had a confusing time getting 
everything changed over to CW. I'm just not used to setting up 
the Microham box, but I was ready to go with a few minutes to 
spare.

20m was already fading away, but provided 7 QSOs x 7 Mults.

40m was better, given the lousy propagation, and provided
the usual 15 x 11.

80m was noisy and "your QRP signals were very weak" :-) 
but I managed 4 x 4.

160m still only good for 1 x 1, despite a couple others heard.

I hope the QRP experience didn't shorten anyone's fuse - dit dit.
