Comments: Great Team but we were fatigued - not from too many Q's - but
from lack of

Q's.  We made the sweep - but shy of our last years score by about 4K
and 30 Q's.
Strange condx - We all felt like we wanted to throw in the towel about noon on
Sunday -but somehow talked our way into finishing with 24 hrs.  That
was the value of the

Team! Thankfully the equipment played well throughout the event.  The
goal was to try to
break the SB Section MSHP record set by Ray, N6VR, and Team in 2008 -
but we fell

quite a bit short!  Maybe next year????
Thanks to Steve, AC6T, and Bill, N6WS for great Team and technical support, and
encouragement to keep on going!
