...can't keep quite anymore - God help me.

Come on you guys !!!

We've been using 2 radios since the 70's !!  I had 2 Drake C-lines at the
operating position in 1978 and listened (AND TRANSMITTED) on them both.  This
is nothing new.

Sure, it works better with the modern computer controlled stuff and fancy
logging programs but...THIS IS NOTHING NEW.

Chad, WE9V, is right !  I bought a FT1000 so I could still have TWO RADIOS
and all that other fancy, modern stuff.

T H I S  I S  N O T H I N G  N E W !!!

I would not mind seeing the sprints change to Sunday evening either.
In fact, if we started at 2300Z instead of 0000Z, we might get a little
more out of 20 meters before it dies - particularly in February near
the bottom of the sunspot cycle.

Ah, clearly that is my problem. By these standards my logs have been 
mostly indecent.

Don't you suppose it's meant to be 30 percent with NA and 7 percent with AF?

My apologies for the less than optimal NAQP writeup for January.  Our son
came in April, and he and the XYL took priority for a few months.

If it's any consolation, I won't be doing the contest any more.

I'm in the process of updating my files here and would appreciate 
hearing from anyone who has info on the following for their contest club:

Club Name
Club Geography (e.g., Denver area, IL/IN/WI, etc.)
Club Contact(s) (callsigns are fine)

Thanks...

P.S. International input is appreciated too!
