[CQ-Contest] 48 hour straight contest operation and human output

[Julius Fazekas]

Makes you wonder how the guys flying B17s managed, and certainly they had many more reasons for instant relief than we contesters do...

Watching what you eat and drink a few days heading into an event makes it much easier minimizing the ummm urge. A well timed #1 can provide a certain energy boost during the contest and #2 at the end of a contest is a truly euphoric event ;o)
