GM Steve et al..

I think everyone did a great job last year.  Fred, WW4LL, thought that 
perhaps we should not try running on two stations early on in the 
contest as that slowed the run operator.  Well, there is probably some 
truth to that.  But every contest is different as all of you know.  I 
felt like we have done this enough to be pretty good at what we do..

Error rate is obviously something we all can improve upon.  In many 
cases though, we do not get corrective feedback from the other station 
when they should tell us if we got something wrong.  So it is incumbent 
upon us to do everything we can to make sure we get it right.

I think we just need to continue to "talk as fast as we can" so we do 
not slow the other guy down.  This is just going to take practice and 
perhaps, a reminder placed where you can see it!  Also, I've not been 
doing much operating lately, so where we start will be largely dependent 
on band conditions.. But frankly, I still think it comes down to 20/15 
in the beginning.  We can make that call on game day..

I'll get you guys the UBN report if it is available, but would have 
thought you would have gotten it because you are shown as an op for 
W5RU.  I know I see K5QE's when it comes out because I was named an op.

Anyway, any other feedback is welcome and I'm open to changes..
