Nice going, Rich.
I have seen Pete using his special headphones.  They don’t seem to slow down his rate at all.

Another fun contest. But, I can only take so much with headphones on. My time spent is inflated, because I didn’t realize until well into the contest that the minimum time off is 1 hour; and I was taking frequent breaks to clear my head for half hour or ¾ hour at a time.
Only about 4% of the contacts were made in the RUN mode. Conditions were screwy with lots of QSB on 10 and 15 meters, and with constant repeats I backed off and did selective S&P getting as many prefixes (multipliers) as I could.
I could have had more contacts on 80 meters, but the typical Summer static on 80 meters is kicking in, and it drove me crazy after 5 minutes.
