[PaQSO] 3910 War stories Sunday, after the finis.

[w3tdf@juno.com]

Hi gang,
FIRST, I appologize to Ron for the 20M incident.I had moved
several times after stations out West advised me that I was
being clobbered. I had many Europians coming in on the
back of the beam when I was trying to get more Western
state mults.

I must relate why I didn't make it Sunday evening.
In order to tear down my elaborate set-up, pack it all up,
and get home by Monday evening, I must start right after the
closing bell, to take advantage of what daylight is left.
When it finally got too dark to do any more outside, and 
with the tower still standing with the tri-bander on it, I was
successful in loading same on 80 meters. That was about
7:30PM. Apparently you all had pulled the switch by then.
Anyway, I had 1117 Q's, 136 Mults (incl. the 67 sweep),
for a total of about 192,000. That was my second best effort
since getting involved back in 1987.
My host family in INN, who shall remain anonymous, couldn't
have been more accomodating. We totally enjoyed being there,
in spite of the weather. 

362 days to go, and counting. Don't know what I'll be doing
next year, or where, until we get the Summary. I have some
thoughts, like CUM and PER and POT and CW only from home. 
I also would like to try mobile one time. WOW, so many choices.
Eeny  Meany  Mynee  Moe.
