Had a lot going on Saturday and couldn't motivate myself to do a full 
10-hour effort. Finally sat down around 2100UTC to get the rig hooked back 
up after Field Day (yeah, I've been busy) - decided to rig up a cable for 
doing FSK and soundcard through WriteLog - wound up spending almost 2 hours 
getting that to work. Had RF in the cable and computer (first time ever for 
that). Finally got started and worked a little here and there, but only 
3:45 total time.

Biggest Oops! : Was calling CQ on the radio computer and reading e-mail on 
the other, and got so busy that I forgot to resume a CQ after working one 
station. About 3 or 4 minutes went by and KI6DY popped up exactly on 
frequency and start CQing (no, he didn't *steal* my freq. I was effectively 
long gone by then...) What is RTTY contesting coming to when one can't 
spend most of his time doing non-RTTY things during the contest... ;-)
