Comments:

Aargh, My worst score in a long time (2009). I was slow 
off the starting line, never got two radios going well, 
didn't get a third hour 40m boost like usual, and really 
did poorly on 80m. At least the computer didn't lock-up 
like on Thursday night. The only success was I stayed with 
it to the end.  With the kilowatts on the band, I lost so 
many jump balls I had to CQ just to fill the waiting time.

So many people seemed to give up in the middle of the QSO 
without a ?, SRI or NIL. I had to guess whether to keep 
them in the log. If you already sent your exchange, I have 
it fine!  So don't be silent - Ask for a fill, or say SRI or 
NIL and I'll take it out of the log. When you say nothing I 
don't know what to do! 

I do much better in the Thursday night NCCC sprints, and I 
enjoy them more. I've got to rethink how I do these NA 
Sprints.
