Yeah, and if you look at the winning scores--they were usually 300-400
Q's or so in that 2 weeks.  Some guys now do that in an hour :-)  I've
got some old (30's-40's) CQ's and QST's and you would be amazed at the
low scores that won.  It hasn't been all that long since the first
SOAB op broke 1,000,000 points.  73
