Comments:

>From the Sherlock Holmes short story "Silver Blaze":

"Is there any point to which you would wish to draw my attention?" 
"To the curious incident of the dog in the night-time." 
"The dog did nothing in the night-time." 
"That was the curious incident," remarked Sherlock Holmes. 
 
I'd remark that the curious incident of this contest was that 10m 
didn't bark. All I got was a few yelps. I worked more stations on 
80 than 10. It was deja vu 2011 all over again, although 15 was 
more productive. What would I do without 40?

I was bedridden the week before the contest with severe back pain,
a new problem for me. I can now certainly empathize with other such 
sufferers. It seemed I'd have to skip the contest, but bed rest 
and Percocet did the trick and I woke up Satuday morning feeling 
almost normal, so I decided to give it a whirl and scram it if I 
couldn't keep up the pace. I did make it all the way through and 
set a new personal QSO record. It turned out, however, that I was 
more physically and mentally fatigued than I realized and made a 
lot of mistakes operating and logging. If you thought I was acting 
weird, well, I was.

Thanks for all the Qs and see you in the WPX-RTTY in February.

73,
Kermit (Ken) AB1J
