Comments:

Thanks to John N3HBX for letting me use the Poolesville station.  A lot of work
has been done since the June 2012 derecho and the station is in full working
order.

After 17 hours I pulled the plug and went home after the NHC made some very
ominous predictions concerning Hurricane Sandy including 6 to 10 inches of
rain, 75+ MPH gusts, and a landfall timetable that was moved up by 12 hours.

Given how much work had yet to be done around the house to prep, I felt I had
no choice but to call it and get home.  I spent practically all of Saturday
afternoon and Sunday morning clearing gutters, raking leaves, and digging a
trench where the house has become vulnerable to water. 

I very much wish I could have pressed on as I know I would have broken the W3
record and may have come in on the USA record.  Hopefully next year.
