Comments:

That was a slug-fest. Twenty started strong, sort of semi-died, and then came
back. It was open everywhere, and many SO2R CQs were there, along with a very
few actual callers, but it did pay off very gradually. Forty was great, great,
great. Eighty was a mud-bath. Pure and simple. Probably lost the mult race once
again, but was happy to get a VE3 on 40. Mults were not "abundant" to
say to least. 

Once again, my last hour was painful, and I set a new "bad record" for
me in the Sprint with a less-than-sterling 48 that last hour. The hour splits
were: 100, 81, 75, and 48. I tried everything, and basically CQed one band and
tuned another band the entire time. All the gear worked great, and I have no
excuses. 

Never heard Trey even one time. Was N5KO on? Crazy Sprint Ju-Ju. 

Thanks to our BlueBelles and also almost two full other W5-Land teams. It was
fun. 

Thanks to the Boring gang and all the operators who make this the best four
hours in ham radio
