<DIV>I usually put more effort and time into this contest than any other. That includes alerting the XYL not to schedule social events (which include me, anyway). Once again I will be running QRP for this event.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I hope to do better than last year, as the 20-10 loop is up higher, the flattop portion of the inverted L is up higher, and the TS-850 has been replaced by a 1000MP. Also, the Winkeyer USB has eliminated all CW element timing glitches, compared to the old serial port, software-based timer approach I used to use.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>On the downside, I'm a year older, and fanny fatigue sets in sooner than ever!</DIV>
