Used SD software by Paul EI5DI for first time in this contest and enjoyed the
experience.  Had a few learning curve experiences sending at the wrong times
etc  but all in all the software worked very well. A new feature that Paul
introduced just days before the contest which implemented "Automatic S&P mode"
upon frequency excursion from RUN mode performed flawlessly.  Congratulations
Paul.

There was great 20M opening to Russia early Sunday morning from 10Z onwards
with many UA9,0 and most other oblasts. Heard several oblasts that didn't work.
 The most that I have heard in the past few years in this contest.

Also fabulous signals from VK7GN at 2042Z on 40M ... sounded like a strong Eu
station at first and then I realized that I was hearing it correctly ! CIS (If
that is the correct term to use) prefixes worked: YL,ES,UW,EY,UP0,LY,EU,4L,EW.
Stumbled into a 40M pileup on 5T5DC and got a 001 - don't think he was in the
contest.

Year over year - heading in the wrong direction. Looks like I better change
something or take up basket weaving!
