 Puck, This one would give the Maytag Repairman night sweats....  A buddy of mine in NC says it was designed by Job as a test of patience......ha ha
 I also heard Sejo.  He was in the middle 200's at least 4 hours before the end.

As an aside, I am kinda fascinated by the various CW cq-ing styles.  For example, MYA uses the "call first style": W4ML W4ML VAQP, while others like yourself use the "cq first, call last" style: CQ VAQP W4PM W4PM.  Some use the "test" style: CQ TEST N4ABC N4ABC TEST, etc.  Of course, with these you have to listen to an exchange or two to figure just which "test" they're playing in.  Others use the "shortie test" style: TEST K4OSO TEST.  Still others use the "stealth" style: QRZ, which eventually prompts the "huh" style....ha ha

Unfortunately I had very little time to play this year.  It's just as well 
because operating CW only in a QSO Party is too slow to hold my interest for 
long.  I heard W4MYA(W4ML) and K4OSO.  Former CVCC member N4HB was very active 
and had some big numbers.  Let me know if you participated and how you did.

73,
Puck W4PM
