I had a blast this weekend! I made my first RTTY contact ever, and then made 
165 more!
WL was a lot of fun to use in the RTTY contest. I did, however, experience many 
system crashes. Usually, it would crash when I left the machine running 
unattended for a while. When returning to the room after a break, I would see 
the Windows message saying that a fault had occured in WriteLog. Everything was 
pretty much hung and a system reboot was required. This was 10.14E on a Windows 
95 P200MX. Packet spotting, rig control and RTTY connections were in active. 
When I just run packet and rig control, there don't seem to be any crashes like 
that.
In spite of having to reboot, I still had the time of my life. In RTTY contests 
you can make QSOs and talk to your wife at the same time.
73!
