Comments:

Thought I was going out of town, but ended up staying home in any case. Couldn't commit to go to NQ4I, and had a crazy weekend schedule. So, I ended up with a few hours to hand out some contacts and try to get a few more confirmations on 80m for DXCC.

Inverted-L works pretty well for DX, but by 0500z, the dipole was just as effective. Of course, lots of stations couldn't hear my pipsqueak station at all. 

I ran assisted, because I was also watching dx spots for W1AW-portable stations. Best moment was finding KG4LB before he was spotted. That would be a new one for me on 80m.
