I always enjoy CWSS as it's the only contest that fits my station 
(barefoot w/ 1 wire antenna). My goal is to try to improve my results 
each time.  This year's target was 700 Q's and at least 100,000 score.  
I beat that, so I was very pleased. Didn't waste time trying to sneak 
into the VY1EI pileup. He wasn't on all that long and I saw him making 
some S&P Q's. I tried parking and calling CQ near his 21.045 watering 
hole in the hope that I might get lucky, but no cigar.  I wound up 1 
short of the sweep, but no complaints.  I thought I'd make more Q's on 
80.  It was especially quiet on Sunday.  This was the first time I tried 
N1MM+ and it worked very well. No glitches. Loads of PVRC action and 
hopefully we'll do well again this year.
