Comments:

Great conditions, except for noise - had an intermittent one on 10 meters in
the same direction as all the Qs, 40 and 80 were their usual noisey selves,
and 160
was really bad.  But this is the first NAQP in a long time where 10 meters
was
open "without qualification".  It was still going strong when I moved
to 15.

My 15 meter yagi developed a bad SWR in the middle of the contest, not sure
why, it recovered after a half hour or so. Maybe it has to do with all the
rain yesterday (two more days of it coming).  I used a single vertical
instead of
my 4 square array.  One vertical was totaled in a recent wind storm and I am
rebuilding it.

Lots of activity, never ran out of folks to work. Thanks to everyone for the
QSOs.    73,  Dana

Antennas: 160m inverted L over 70 radials, 80m top loaded vertical over
those same radials, 40 meter vertical, 20 meter 4 element yagi at 50',
5 element 15 meter yagi at 45', 5 element 10 meter yagi at 48', A3
tribander at 40' for quick direction changes.
