I had already committed my Friday night to other activities; so, I had to go
with the less-than-optimum Saturday night slot. I had a good time for a short
effort. I finally got bored when the rate dropped around 0230z and packed-up.
Computer logging has been around since I was learning to walk. In light of
that, I decided to give the computer a break and send the whole contest by hand.
I have a greater appreciation for anyone who went/goes 48 hours with a set of
paddles. It is a lot of fun, though. Thanks for bearing with my sloppy fist at
times!
