Comments:
While this was NoT my 1st-ever Sprint, it WAS the 1st-time I ran the Sprint
using a newly acquired Yaesu FT-2000 transceiver.  While I had a lot of fun,
I was frustrated by the stations who need to STFD (Slow Down - QRS) and the OPs
who would start sending their exchange BEFORE I was done transmitting.  
By the time I am finished transmitting they have already sent the number,
which now requires a REPEAT. The WASTED ~6 seconds would have been UNNECESSARY
if they had waited 1.2 seconds for me to finish.  WAKE UP People.
I KNOW it's a SPRINT, but when you send too fast I have to ask for a repeat,
slowing us ALL down.
