Comments:

As usual, a good time in a super contest! 
Station: 80m vee at 20m, 40m slopping dipole, SkyHawk at 20m
         K3, KPA500, VCI tunner, N1MM, WinXP

This is getting close to what I can do from my in-city QTH. No 160m ant and
marginal 80/40m antennas put a limit on an all-band effort. The SkyHawk does
well under the circumstances. I'm still working to get N1MM, the computer, and
my MicroHam interface to cooperate. They stop working at times, and I loose an
hour or two through the contest fixing the problem of the moment. 

I envy those with 400+ Q's on 40m! I think I'll max out at around 200. I
operate mostly S&P with some running; running from my QTH and with my equipment
just doesn't support a sufficient rate to stick with it through the whole
contest. I actually run a higher rate with S&P for many hours. Speaking of
which, at 72y/o, I think the full 48 hour chair time is another thing of the
past. So, my future goal is 1000 Q's and 1 million points. That would be a
dream come true.

Great time hearing familiar calls from around the world. Hoping and praying for
peace for all. 73's for this time around.
