Comments:

As others have noted, participation was down -- although not as bad as the SSB
Sprint had dropped to before the recent rejuvenation of that contest.  I was
able to do fairly well in the S&P portion, winning a "jump ball,"
but when the frequency was mine all too often I had to eventually move due to no
one calling.
The new wrinkle in the Info box on N1MM+ which shows time since last QSO was
sometimes demoralizing.  I didn't look at it much, but a couple of times when
it seemed like a long time was passing without a QSO I checked it only to see a
number like 4 minutes, 28 seconds!  Way too long between QSOs in a Sprint!  It
is time to try my limited SO2R skills in the Sprint.

Conditions were good here, especially 80 meters.
