Comments:

I wasn't too sure how this was going to go after only making 100 contacts the
first three hours. On 40 meters you DO NOT make hay while the sun shines. It
got better, much, much better.

Tom, K7FA graciously let me remote in to his K3,three element 40M mono-bander,
and 8877 amp so I owed it to his fine station to a B.I.C. (butt in chair)
effort. Despite some rain/wind static, enough Internet latency that would
truncate the first letter of callers (hence all the requests for repeats), and
a wicked brew of QRN/QSB Friday evening I had a blast.

I had to stay at 28 or 30 wpm to keep the CW coherent (mostly).

Running JAs each night was just too much fun. Best DX was RI1ANT in Antarctica
while pointed north. Go figure. Again thanks to Tom, K7FA for letting me add to
his power bill!

73,
Gene
