Comments:

A huge thank you to N3HBX for letting me use the Poolesville station.  A
flawless operation this weekend that will not soon be forgotten.

WOW!

I almost did not do this one.  

So much to say about this weekend, and not enough thought power right now. 
I'll just drop in a few points now and a fuller write up eventually.

- Almost did not do this one meaning I had a 55 hour work week including a trip
out to the west coast on Tuesday, a red-eye flight back to DC Wednesday night
and then marathon meetings at a Federal agency on Thursday.

- Lost packet for 3 hours Saturday owing to snow static which knocked out the
satellite Internet connection. Snow also caused havoc with reception on the
high yagis until at least 1500z. 

- Have not seen conditions like this in 20 years when I was a teenager in high
school.  This was one of the main reasons why I chose to operate (A) (that and
the work fatigue factor).

- Absolutely stunning openings on the high bands with terrific hourly rates.

- Easily beat the USA Call #3 record, USA record, and North America record. 
We'll see if somebody in #2 land did that too!  

- The score from N1MM does not agree with CT which does not agree with Wintest.
 The mult count moves but all are above 12,000,000 in score.

Thanks all for the QSOs, points, and mult moves.  Its now time to go back to
sleep.  Oh wait....It's Monday.............
