        Murphy really got me this time!  I couldn't hear anything the first
night, then I discovered more than an hour into the contest that I was
listening on my NE beverage!  I don't know how I worked 59 Q's.  I tried
switching in the beverage later on fairly strong signals and they
disappeared.  I must have only worked the 20 over guys!  My apologies to
all those who were calling and got CQ'd in the face.

        I have had some trouble with RF into my W9XT card, so I tried a MFJ
voice keyer.  It worked ok the first day, but developed some feedback
the second day.  Luckily I discovered that disconnecting the beverage
box cured the RF in the W9XT card and also got rid of the monitor
birdies.

        Saturday was great and Sunday was bad.  I was hearing many Europeans in
the noise on Sunday on skew path at 125-135 degrees, but I could only
copy the strongest ones.  I could pick out a letter or two on the
others, but no go.

        I made a big mistake by not reorienting my NE antenna to VK-ZL.  It was
worthless toward Europe and I could not work both JAs and VK-ZL at the
same time.  I will fix this before WPX.

        Mults worked and rates follow:
