Comments:

My teammate N4NX clued me in to the NAQP saying it's a contest 
tailored for my (limited) skills.  But maybe not to my limited antennas :)

Had a good time but lack of adequate lower band antennas really hurt 
when 20 shut down so early.  10 was its usual disappointment :(

My biggest problem was the difficulty in making 80m contacts with my 
40m G5R Jr. antenna.  Apparently there was enough RF in the shack 
from that mismatch to reboot my computer between contacts.  Now 
THAT's a huge pain, believe me.

Otherwise, great fun!
