NAQP CW

Worked the North American QSO Party this past weekend. Started out pretty well, but things slowed down later in the evening ... once I had to go over to 40 & 80 Meters.

It was nice to hear 10 Meters open again ... sounds like there are starting to be more and more openings, which is a good sign that things are starting to come back ... C'mon sunspots!

Used the Windows logging program, N1MM for the first time, after using the DOS program NA for many years. Felt is was time to move into the 21st Century and try something different ... and maybe a bit more "modern"!

One neat thing you can do, is automatically post your "real time" score while operating. Kind of makes contesting a spectator sport!

Final numbers - 502 QSO's, 158 Multipliers, 79,316 points.
