Comments:

This was the first time I ran in the assisted category. I learned a few things
about chasing spots like; don't believe all you see, don't lock on to bright
shiny mults, don't forget to invest in a time to run. I succeeded in doing all
of the don't(s). 
 A lot of S&P and some retched band conditions in the afternoon really made
this a marathon with occasional sprints. 
 Using the assisted category was distracting for me, but I can see why this is
necessary in this contest. There were a lot of Splits going on that I would
have missed, a few rare locations that came and went quickly as well. I added a
few new DX locations by using the spots. But, you really shouldn't trust them!
Fun.... Different.... and something to consider in future contests.
