I spent only about 2 hours S&P SSB during the start of the contest.  From my station in Adams county, I worked 6 of my 18 contacts on 20m.  I could hear several of the mobile stations, but they could not hear me.  
 
Maybe next year I will spend a little more time on preparation!
 
I found that my new automatic tuner does not like 1000 watts on 80 when auto switching down from 20 :-).
