The year after my stroke I only managed to operate 16 hours of the
contest.  This year I made it for 19 hours.  Maybe next year or the year
after I'll make it for the entire 24 hours.

20 started strange in the midwest but turned into a great band part way
through the contest.  15 sounded good but was weird, first time in my 36
years of ham radio that I've worked JA's short path at 9 AM local time.
Also worked several scandinavian stations late in the afternoon while
beaming asia.  The noise level was on the high side from 7 MHz and down,
but European DX was easily workable on 40.

Station: IC-775 & AL-800H.  Stacked TH-7s at 123 and 93 Ft, 40 meter
lazy V 4 square, 80 meter lazy V 4 square, and 160 meter sloping
verticals 4 square with elevated radials.

     Comments:  As always great fun.  It is like a world wide QSO
                party and allow one to say hi to a bunch of old
                friends. I always logged the received zone, even
                though in some case I questioned the zone I was
                given.
 
                      
 
 
     I have observed all competition rules as well as all regulations for
     amateur radio  in my country.  My report  is correct and true to the
     best of my knowledge.  I agree  to be bound by  the decisions of the
     ARRL Awards Committee.
