Saturday night was a little tough using a wire on 80m with high SWR.  Luckily I 
had another wire for 160m that tuned up on 80m and that worked well from there on.

While running, I noticed that after working a station with precedence of U, that I would get a surge in Qs. :-)  Great encouragement for an LP to run more often, even with short runs, it proved to work better than S&P.

Had a good surge in Qs (27) near the last hour on 80m for 18 minutes, so that was a nice way to end the contest.

I missed the following sections:  RI, VT, SNJ, and QC.

I didn't do as well as last year (56k), but at least it ended well.

It'll be interesting to see the backlog on LoTW this week.  ;-)

It was great to hear comments on the air about all of the MDC and NC stations on this weekend.

Thanks for all the Qs!
