[PaQSO] why more dx interest than west coast?

I'm no big gun on the high bands (or any bands), but found myself being
called by more DX than I can ever remember. What struck me was that
many of them had some nice numbers. These guys were actually competing
and not just giving out points. As others have reported, I was also
asked by DX to QSY so they could get another QSO from me.
I did manage 4 CA mults (less than 10 CA stations total), and maybe as
someone said they were wore out from the previous week's CAQP.
Final thought: A number of years ago some folks on the Writelog mailing
list were put out by the need to mail in a paper summary sheet. They
claimed they would never bother with the PA QSO again. Maybe just a
couple of grumps blowing off some steam. As a blind guy, I've always
found the paper sheet a bit of a pain, but the rules is the rules. I
think Mike has indicated there may be a change in this for 2014, so we
shall see.
