Whew! Five watts, an attic loop, and a solar flare, made my 2010 QRP Sweepstakes entry from Maui a challenge to say the least. Last year I was first place QRP from the Pacific section, though my triumph had to be tempered by the lack of any other Pacific area QRP entries. I hope for some competition this year. Maybe some of the 'big guns' out  here in Hawaii will try entering with 5 watts feeding those beams. Thanks to all of you who took the time to dig me out of the mud. Wait 'till next year!
