Like so many others, this has got to be my favorite contest. A vertical and
wires are not the most competitive antennas in the world; but allow me to
have fun. Strictly S&P for 475 q's (breakdown below); for W8JWN, sorry I
missed you; but then I never did hear another WV station.
The ... in the macros were disconcerting; but NOT near as maddening as the
multiple line feeds where your data scrolls off the screen.
I will not comment on SO2R operations, Talk about slowing down the rhythm.
Sitting and waiting for some op to finish another q on another band. Sorry
guys, but I am not a fan. To each, his own though.
