:::: I will indeed be in there trying out all my new CW interface
goodies. I have not really operated CW in a contest in many years.
BTW FYI in the CQ 160 contest last year, In 9 hours I made 972 contacts
in all 48 states plus 12 countries :-) :-) For first in TN and 17th. in
country. All on phone.
I did run full power though. One of these days I may try qrp just to
punish myself.

Huh? For QRP with a completely portable operation, I'd call that pretty
good.
The late jazz saxophonist Gene Quill was sometimes criticized for being
a poor imitation of the great Charlie Parker. At one point, he handed
his horn to one of those critics, saying "Here -- YOU play Charlie
Parker solos."
