Normally don't post my scores here but a little proud of it. Actually a
little freaked out about it. I see W0YK didn't kick my ass
as I thought he would.

Comments:
Best NAQP score ever by me or anyone else. Killed the record but not
feeling good about the west coast having their way on 15 and
10 meters. Unbelievable activity. My new antennas worked well!
I've been doing NAQP RTTY ever since it started and cannot recall there
being a better one than this one. I want to thank my wife
Sharon for the wonderful meal she cooked for me when I took a 45 minute
break. I was so jacked up I couldn't stop moving. I ended
up washing and drying all the dishes. Forget the dishwasher. I wanted to
take a full hour but just had to get back to the radio so
only took 45 minutes and ended at 0444Z. It was too good.
Thanks to everyone who moved bands for me. Too bad I didn't have the
midwest on 15 meters or anything other than west coast on 10
or the damage could have been worse. Averaging 98 Q's an hour for the ten
hours is amazing even to me.
The only thing I can do now is sit and watch the scores and see how badly
W0YK beats me. hi Hopefully not because I put everything
I had into this one. I have dreamed of this for a long time. Nonetheless,
it was the best NAQP RTTY contest I've ever operated. I
won't remember it tomorrow but I remember it now!
Long live RTTY contesting.
