Comments:

I've participated in this contest before on occasion but never paid much
attention aside from marveling at the score.  That should have been a clue that
it was a distance scoring contest, a concept I support although I know it's not
as simple or as universally fair as I first thought.  Still, I'm happy to
participate and lend my support.

Even though there's no way to get all four corners of the globe onto a flat
playing field, it's worth trying, using as simple a process as possible.  This
is still a conceptual work in progress which I hope succeeds.

Conditions weren't great but I was pleased with my results.  I've been
experimenting with N1MM+ using Fldigi vs MMVARI and this was the first RTTY
contest in a while where I had enough Qs to draw a conclusion which was:  
I really can't tell any difference, TX or RX.  

I guess that's a legitimate conclusion, but not a very exciting one.

I hope everyone is having fun at Dayton.

And I hope to see some of you in the upcoming CQ-WPX-CW.

Thanks for the contacts.

73,
Ken, AB1J
