Thanks for all the participation.  Round-Up feels like six NCJ Sprints
back-to-back.  Imagine what it will be like with propagation.  This is a
personal best for me, pending log check.  The 400K score barrier won't be
broken, but maybe the 3K QSO total will remain exceeded and maybe it will be
a new SOHP record.  We'll see.  Average QSO rate was 134/hour (dupes
removed) with 801 QSOs in the first four hours.  First time I've exceeded
200/hour, let alone three hours in a row.  I sort of felt trapped at times,
thanks to all the great activity.  That's a good problem to have in
radio-sport, but a challenge none-the-less.  In theory, RTTY rates can
exceed CW, but it will require snappy operating on both sides of the QSO.  I
see lots of opportunity to improve my own operating efficiency.

 

Feliz Anja Nobo,

Ed - P49X (W0YK)
