Yeah, I remember this guy now.  If everyone else is OK with sending him the
6 meter log then I am.  I am kind of interested in this WinTest logging
software.  13 computers for 48 hours with no crashes is impressive!
Certainly beats us.

I don't really see any problem with it. In fact, I was curious about his log
and how we compared. He was the single op' 6m only station that drove away
from Maggie Valley to get out from under us. Our 6m scores are very similar.
See:

Interesting, he claimed 533 q's and 160 mult's, and is published in the
results as 525/159.

Unless there are any objections, I will send him the 6m portion of the June
log in a couple of days.
