Greetings all:

Like Tom Hammond(N0SS) said... Sweepstakes is FUN! Really the only contest 
that I put any effort into. This year's effort was minimal... about 11 
hours. QRP level and only a low wire make things even more challenging. I 
didn't manage a clean sweep, but got 'em all except NT, AK, and PAC. In the 
late afternoon (~21Z) I had to come upstairs and watch the Patriots whip up 
on some team from out in the midwest<g>. By the time I got back downstairs 
to continue with the contest, the ionosphere was really messed up and my 5 
watts couldn't seem to get out of the back yard.

Anyway... here's my results. If I'm lucky, I'll win first place, QRP, in my 
section (RI)<g>.

Band		QSOs		Sec
80		7		3
40		138		27
20		73		21
15		80		19
10		35		7

Total		333		77

73,
