Comments:

NEQP is always fun but this was a four-bagger.  We put a special state (Maine),
a special county (Oxford), and a special call (W1OO) on the air by means of a
special station (W1IMD), which we operated remotely from our homes.

Remote operation is vulnerable to software glitches, and they cost us a couple
of hours, but we prevailed.  The 10- and 20-m bands were worthless and 20 m was
poor because the SSNe was negative; and 80 m was poor because, on Saturday
night, the ionosphere was a turbulent mess.  However, 40 m and W1IMD's MonstER
SteppIR at 290-ft height saved the weekend.

We thank W1IMD for the use of his station; and we thank K1EU and K1JB of the
Down East DX Association for allowing us to use the late Lanny Bailey's call.
