[NCC] Fwd: MiQP W1NN Single Op LP

[Hal Offutt]

I suppose it was inevitable, but I have to admit to being a little sad 
to see the QSO number replaced by signal report.  QSO numbers made the 
contest a little more challenging and challenging to me means fun.  I 
certainly struggled with serial numbers during my many solo mobile 
efforts.  It was very difficult for me to remember what serial number I 
sent to the last station, especially when operating while driving, and I 
tried various things to help. One year I bought one of those hand 
counters that advance one digit every time you push the button, and 
mounted it near my paddle, but often I couldn't remember if I pushed the 
button or not.  It's probably a lot safer to use signal report if you 
want to drive and operate at the same time.

Any ideas what I can do with my old  counter?

Comments:

Not much time for this one since I had just returned from nearly 2.5 
years in
Japan, but I have many fond memories of my mobile operations in past 
Michigan
QSO Parties so I always make an effort to get on.

During the times I was on, 40 meter skip was quite short and MI stations 
were
pretty strong. 80 was also good for the short distance from Medina to MI.
