ARRL Sweepstakes Complete!

Just finished my first partial attempt at contesting in many years. This weekend was the ARRL SSB Sweepstakes. Basically it is a North American HF contest and you try to contact as many different stations you can in all the ARRL Sections. Because of everything else going on, I knew I wouldn't be able to be on for the whole contest. Didn't really plan on it anyway. Going into the contest, I set a goal of 100 contacts. I surpassed that at 1am today. By the time I sent my log into the ARRL, I had 208 contacts and 29k points! I was thrilled with my success.

Weekend is over and time to get back to work...
