I had a lot of fun in this one, but too many interruptions.  I had some 
repair work on my place that needed to be done, and my son-in-law who was 
supposed to show up in the morning to do the job, didn't show up until 
midway into the contest.  Oh well, at least he showed up, so I guess I 
should count my blessings.  :)

Had no trouble copying K9MUG/4, or anybody else, except when I got clobbered 
by QRM.  I sure would love to see 75 baud become the standard speed.  I know 
somw stations had problems with setting up their software for that speed, 
but all I did was set DECODE in the Writelog MMTTY Plug-in to 75 baud and it 
worked flawlessly.

Like Don, AA5AU, I am anxiously awaiting next weekend.  This weekend my XYL 
was in Las Vegas with our daughter & daughter-in-law, so I could play 
contest allby my lonesome.  I tried to get her to change the date to next 
weekend, but they refused to listen to that suggestion.

Thanks to all who gave me a contact.  I only made 71, but considering the 
interruptions, I'm happy with that.

73,
