[GCARC] CW Sweepstakes 2024 - NE2R

[Ben Johnson]

Darrell.

Congratulations on your score.

N1MM. Absolutely.

Part of my first year back in 2021 was to do a mind meld on contesting.

AB1T,  Doug oddly my 'mentor' in '63, was an inspiration to get into
contesting and then my visit to GCARC's FD provided me the missing link I
need to using N1MM. VOTA was a comfortable way to get hands on experience.

I'm making up for my 36 years QRT
