Operated for about 3 hours.  Had lots of fun with the new SO2R setup.  If 
only the conditions would have been better.  The QRN was brutal  here in 
Oregon.  I can't remember the last time I have heard it like that.  Now I 
know what you guys down south have to put up with.  I actually got a short 
run going on 40, but the noise was so bad I couldn't print who was coming 
back.  I did manage to word a couple of EA's and a RX3 (RX3XX with a booming 
signal) on 40 low power.  Seems like there was lots of activity.

Once again N1MM performed flawlessly.  Rick has really got the digital end 
of this program perculating perfectly.  I ran rig control, 2 bandmaps, 
packet, and just about every window available and nary a hiccup.  Sure takes 
the drudgery out of RTTY contesting.

Got a new amp coming so going to be the end of low power contesting for a 
while.  73 and thanks for the Q's and thanks to the EA's for a fun contest.
