Comments:

I need to figure out something better for dupes.  I ended up with 36 -- my
number sent reached 1000, which was an important psychological milestone for
me.  Then I calculated the number of good QSOs and realized I had more than 30
or so to go before I actually reached 1000!  I was using the philosophy that it
is better to work dupes, but the exchange is so long in SS that I am not sure. 
I feel that several people worked me a second time because they had my call
wrong -- often people have it as N5BO.  When I hear someone send my call wrong
I repeat my call for them and slow waaay down on the DO part, but often they
send "R" and away they go.  Late in the contest I started sending QSO B4 and
that felt better.  Anyway it was a fun contest with a lot of great scores.
