Team PVRC #1
I watched the ever decreasing rate meter on 40M and wondered how I was going to
break 300. On the telnet I saw spots building on 80 so went down there with 8
minutes to go. Found a run frequency quickly and made 16 Q's in under 8 minutes
with K4BAI, my ex-college roommate and frequent partner in crime on VP5M
expeditions calling me in the last few seconds of the last minute to wind up the
third CWOPEN session. Very satisfying!

This was the first year in many I was home for Labor Day weekend and could get
into this contest. I like the split session format.
Choosing not to use history files made for challenging sessions. Needed more
fills than usual to get something resembling your name into the log. The log
checkers will have a field day destroying my claimed score but I needed the
practice both hearing and typing. My high school typing teacher probably knew
more than I that at 80 I would still be using a skill learned at 15! 
Thanks for the Q's--and your patience!
73,
Jim K4QPL
