This is my best ever 10 meter effort. The band was quiet hr (for most of =
the weekend)  so I could work those puny weak stations-think it's called =
QRP. I would have been much better off working Sunday afternoon rather =
than watching my beloved Browns choke once again. I still feel I don't =
get all the mults I should-maybe a bigger antenna will work! A61AJ wins =
the good guy award as he patiently got parts of my exchange on Sunday =
early before the band was really open to him. The persistence award goes =
to HP3HUG(think thats the call) as he was PW and it took me 10 minutes =
to pull his number and call out-but he was a mult! Only had one jerk =
encounter when a W9 started calling CQ while I had a nice EU run going =
on about 28024-after awhile I coun't tell who was calling who so I moved =
(I hve no idea why the font changed here!) How did outher NCCers =
doooooooo? scores?

73 to all and CU @K8MR or on the bands.
