It was great to hear so many PVRCers on the air and see so many scores!  I worked an EPA who said "there are a lot of NC stations on the air".

This was my first time working NT and my best score to boot.  The last hour I was actually able to run on 80m for about 30 minutes and I was working over 1 station per minute.  LP is a challenge, but it was fun, especially after working the NT whom I found Sunday afternoon CQing on 20m.  I missed sections MS, OK, OR, ND, QC, and PR.  I almost had PR, whom I found on 80m just at the end of the contest and he went QRT.  If I worked him, I would have gotten the free magnet.  :-)  Like someone mentioned, it is amazing to hear the silence on the air at the end of the contest.  :-D

Go PVRC!!!
