I got mine electronic-only; sat on 99 for the longest time.  :-)

I have ~230 worked and about 120 confirmed on LOTW (and a few more on
cards).  I'm getting itchy-close to that 125 sticker.  :-)

Even though I only worked 42 grids in my not-very-serious effort last
week, I did get about 8 new grids and, thankfully, two have already
been confirmed.

I wanted to add some on 2 last night as FNs were heard here in EM15,
but the trusty old Cushcraft shows about 1.8:1 which makes the
IC746Pro seriously unhappy.  :-/  I've only got about 30 grids or so
worked on 2 with 10 confirmed.
