Comments:

Wow, what a blast!

Had short run rates of 240, 126, and 80 per hour during the first two hours. 
First time I can remember actually holding frequencies for long periods running
barefoot on phone.  Running a ZS6BKW dipole fed with ladder line on 40/80 up
only about 35 feet, with the recommended 75 feet of coax, to calm the SWR a bit
at the transmitter end, and the tuner in my K3.  Had several stations tell me I
was loud stateside, especially on 40.

I ended up spending the whole contest on phone, so I gave up a bunch of
possible CW mults, and in theory a much better total score, but I can't
complain, since I was having so much fun on phone!

Thanks to the organizers, and of course, to all the stations that were on, both
in-state and out-of-state, that made this QSO party one to remember.

73,

-- Dave, N8SBE
