Comments:

What a difference a year makes. Same station, similar time on and same op yet
one third the score. I felt like I was working fairly hard. Nonetheless, fun
stuff which is the target.

Gotta improve talk power on 80 as the 4 square heard a dozen more countries
that didn't hear me. Sunday AM things started looking pretty good with 15 and
20 both lighting up nearly at the same time here in the Midwest. Put the
pressure on SO2R and for several hours and made for what it's all about. May
have missed any European opening on ten early Sunday but don't think so. Thanks
to the Southern ops for making a few visits to ten worthwhile and to a couple of
ZSs that confirmed ten can be a long distance band. 

Only one nasty sounding transmitter heard all weekend - on 15 somebody was
sawing timber over several KC acres making "hearing" kinda tough.
This time the call started with an I not a C.

No fights detected again this year only a couple of QRL !! scuffles. 20 had
signals all the way to .125. I think everyone wanted there own space.

Thanks to the continued support and efforts of those who keep this one going
and do the work behind the scenes. The Big Daddy of tests during the year.

Also, thanks for all the Qs from those that undertake air travel for this one.
An activity that surely has become much more of a hassle, air travel that is.

73, Jerry K5YAA

Rig: Dual K3s, dual Alpha 9500s, 8el 10, 6el 15, 6el 20, 3el 40 and wires on 80
and 160. N1MM keeps on trucking.
