Comment:  I knew going in that it would be a fairly casual effort due 
to family/house/houseguest 'things.'
As usual, still turning the big knob; no Internet connection during 
the contest, no Skimmer, no spots....

Late to the panadapter party, I did get a basic pan system going on 
one of the two rigs prior to the contest (well, only 1.5 hour late start...).
Enjoyed playing with the new distraction.  Thus far I'm seeing signal 
pips only but no callsigns the way I use it.
I build my own N1MM bandmap as I work the band, as usual, and the pan 
shows me new signals that might pop up between the calls already worked.
Then of course I have to copy the call of the new signal and go from there....

It's all fun, and it was great to hear many SCCCers in the piles!
