[CQ-Contest] May Low Power CW Sprint

[N4AF]

Enclosed are logs received so far.

I was pleased by the first time activity and would like to do this
again next year (with teams). Date TBD but probably May.
Frankly, the slow periods gave me an opportunity to improve my SO2R
sprint skills.

Tho QRN is a problem in May there are not a lot of other free months.
Far as I am concerned, we could do this weekly- but reason wins ;-)

After some reflection and reading all comments, I feel the event
should stay a Low Power Sprint. There are some obvious disadvantages
but there are also some good reasons to keep it the way it is.

KZ5D's note on moving the hours up by one made a lot of sense to me
but it sounds like that would be a problem for the west coast ? The
thinking was it would increase the time that 20M could be exploited
but I gather that 40M is still not fully open after two hours.

It is important I get everyones log, it really helps with the log
checking. The due date is this Saturday. Also, I would appreciate it
if owners of those logs that do not contain a line "CREATED-BY:" could
advise me what logging program generated it (my check software
initially tries to find beginning columns based on the logging
program).

If you are not on the list and sent a log in, drop me a nasty-gram or,
better yet, resend.

Thanks, Howie
