Comments:

We set a target to break the national record in the M/S category and eventually
succeeded. The propagation was generally ok, although our pre-contest
experiences on 10m and 15m promised better things for the high bands. In fact,
one of our slogans for this weekend's effort was that "we don't need no
propagation!", an attitude born of many pain-filled contest experiences in the
non-favored north .... 

There were only two of us for the M/S entry, but we managed to stay awake, and
even the multiplier radio was manned at least 95% of the time. We worked hard
on the multiplier total and were happy to exceed our target. We also got to
practice some Russian language when calling CQ and giving the contest
exchanges; we hope that our Russian friends were forgiving of our Finnish
accents :)

The station worked well, with the only equipment problem related to the
direction displays of the antenna towers. Thanks to Jukka OH6LI for another
interesting weekend at his station, and see you all next weekend in WPX SSB
from OH4A and OH0V!
