Seemed hard to find the last few QSOs on each band this time. Aside from
a really bad start the first hour was my best ever with 93Q. The bad
start was one Q in 4 minutes thanks to @*&% software. It crashed twice,
I gave up and did it by hand (N6TR, how much is ur software?). Of the
lower 48 I missed ME KY SC OK ID MT IA KS NE SD. Heard WD0GVY and KF0H
in IA but was out of sync... Also found VE2-3-4-5-VY1-KP4-XE.
I overlooked 15 wpm KB8OOY/AE early on but he called me much later - nice
to catch WV! Heard lots of goodies in the 15 minutes before the Sprint
started - several CM/CO YN VE7 SD VE1 but didn't go back for them...
Turns out I used the wrong 80M antenna also (GP instead of Inv V)
K1KI: 20-40-80 = 116-113-83 = 312 x 45 = 14,040
