=============================================================================
Thanks to Keko, TI5KD, for getting all his antennas working before the start of
the contest.
More than 80% of my Qs were S & P. To my surprise, I actually worked a few
Europeans on 10 Meters. My best Qs were ET3TK on 20 Meters, and having 7Z1SJ
come back to a CQ on 15 meters.
My best accomplishment was actually finding a hole on 20 Meters as the last hour
of the contest started, and holding that frequency against all odds to the end
of the contest for my best hour!
Thanks to all for the Qs!
