Comments:

I took advantage of an invitation to visit the the NR4M "Goat Farm" on
Friday and came back Saturday at 7:30. I worked some contacts Friday night on 15
meters.  I went to bed around 11PM, but sleep was not good.  I got up at 5AM. 
Worked some more on 15 meters and later on 20 meters.  Longest butt in chair
time was 2 hours - that is long for me! Probably worked about 5 hours all
together.  Steve and the rest of the hams were great and I enjoyed my visit.  I
learned a lot and got over some anxiety.  I traveled the 3 hours back on late
Saturday afternoon.   

Sunday morning I got up (late) and listen some and started some searching and
pouncing as I learned more about RTTY with my setup.  I finally started running
late in the contest.  I made some mistakes, however I did not panic.
