Comments:
1) The "WA" suffix seems to be awfully popular!
2) The SDG section seems to be quite foreign to a large number of SSers. I 
had to repeat my section pretty regularly.
3) On Sunday morning, N1MM software defaulted to SSB when I booted it up. I 
didn't realize it and struggled with why it wouldn't send CW to the rig. 
Arghh!
4) After correcting that, N1MM also decided to keep telling me it lost 
communication with the radio. (It didn't though...it was sending CW just 
fine.) I finally figured out that I could kill that error by clicking on 
Cancel when the error message popped up.
5) Operated mostly evenings this time. I was busy replacing nine windows 
with new double pane units at my home. I KBed (or is that KedB) on the 
window job Saturday but paid for it with seriously sore muscles and back 
Sunday morning. That caused me to stay in the contest chair a little longer 
rather than getting right back to work on the house. No complaints there!
6) NU6T sent me a check of 02 Sunday morning. I wasn't fully awake yet, and 
paused to wonder how anyone could have first been licensed in 1902 and be 
operating in SS in 2010!
