I worked Iowa and South Dakota once each.  Missed a lot of other states, 
though.

You guys are clearly faster operators than me--but I had fun.  I put
in about six hours--mostly on 20, but a bit on 15 and 40.  The bands
were pretty noisy here on the west coast.  I didn't hear you Mike,
but I worked MS a couple of times.  IA escaped me as well along with
several New England states and the Dakotas.
