Comments:

FT-857D @ 5 watts to G5RV (40M) and Cushcraft MA5V (20-10M).

Running QRP with my equipment in this contest was a real test of "self-esteem"!
 Once I got on 20M and 40M, it was tough to repeatedly call a station running on
a frequency...working a seemingly endless supply of other hams.  I'll call it
"character building", but it sure makes you feel "lonely" during some parts of
the contest!

Most humorous QSO - working Wayne, AD5ST, who lives about 2 miles south of me
in Arlington, TX.  His on-air comment was "maybe it's long path"!  Wayne is
also a member of the same DFW Contest Group Team Quark as I am.

As always with the NAQP contests, it's nice to hear top-shelf contesters treat
you so nicely as they dig your signal out of the noise.  "Good Ears" to all who
contacted me!

See you in the next contest!

72/73,
Andy - WA5RML
