A fun start and an incredibly frustrating ending.

303 x 44 =3D 13,322

Great on 20 at start with loud signals from KM9P in GA and the W9's in =
IL.  Got a bit behind the leaders, but then reeled them in on 40 which =
was also good at the start.  Then bands went long and New England fell =
into some kind of black hole.  80 was horrible.  Couldn't find anyone to =
work until the last 10 mins.  Almost quit with 45 mins to go it was so =
bad.

1 radio
2 band changes

Breakdown:

20m  105
40m  116
80m   82  -- This should always be the best band!

Hours:

00   85
01   84
02   69
03   65
