Comments:

Didn't dedicate much time. Too busy planning and packing for an out of town
short job stint.  I need to learn the word "no"

Running QRP, it was very interesting to see who out there receives well and who
maybe doesn't.  Some instances of not being heard by loud stations I attribute
to not being in a favorable lobe of their receive antenna.  A few though I
believe are running way more power than they should given how poorly they are
receiving.  A quick look at QRZ pages usually confirms the suspicions.  

I might have to try this one QRP one more time to at least give N9SE another
horse to race against.  One thing I did do was not challenge a station to waste
time trying to hear me.  If it was a slow time and they weren't busy, I'd try
several calls.  If they were busy but were struggling to get all my call, I'd
moved on.  I didn't want to spoil a good run.  

Ironically, I did work a few stations by CQing but three at a time does not make
a run, lol.

73,

Gary KC9EE
