Thanks for all the participation.  Round-Up feels like a six NCJ Sprints back-to-back.  Imagine what it will be like with propagation.  This is a personal best for me, pending log check.  The 400K score barrier won't be broken, but maybe the 3K QSO total will remain execeeded and maybe it will be a new SOHP record.  We'll see.  Average QSO rate was 134/hour (dupes removed) with 801 QSOs in the first four hours.  First time I've exceeded 200/hour, let alone three hours in a row.  I sort of felt trapped at times, thanks to all the great activity.  That's a good problem to have in radio-sport, but a challenge none-the-less.  In theory, RTTY rates can exceed CW, but it will require snappy operating on both sides of the QSO.  I see lots of opportunity to improve my own operating efficiency.
