Comments:

Had 5 ops that had minimal contesting or ham radio or n1mm experience, do this
operation was a bit less polished than others may have been in the past.  This
said, it was lots of fun and much was learned.

Conditions were great, especially on 10!  Been a while since it's been that
good.  'Roasted' a remote switch box on 10 with all the CQ'ing, the power and
1.7:1 SWR on the stack.  Hey, that's the way it goes sometimes.

For a bit of change in snacks, on Friday, I fixed up some 'boiled peanuts'
(southern thing) which went over about like a 'hooker in church.'  Maybe I
should stick to pretzels and potato chips!

Thanks for all the Q's and being patient with the rough-around-the-edges
operating.
