Comments:

This was my first serious effort operating assisted.  There's more to it than I
thought.  

I succumbed to the novice's temptation to play the contest like a video game -
clicking spots furiously when the band was wide open.  But that was
short-sighted.  It dried-up the well of top tier stations who are nearly always
workable.  Those few hours when the bands were at their best were the few hours
when I could have had a decent rate CQing with low power - logging the second
and third tier stations who never CQ and who never appear in the cluster feeds.
 Not many of those stations appear in my log.  'Live and learn...

Thanks to all,

/Bill, K2PO
Portland, Oregon
