Comments:

I have to echo K8AJS' assessment of running this contest in low power.  I would
call and call and even wait till no one else was calling a station, and still
not get him.  Often I was being "CQed in my face" (I think that's the
term).  I did horrible on 40/80/160 being barefoot.  20M was hit and miss, but
okay barefoot and 15M was really good being barefoot.  Sunday, I got a pleasant
surprise of about an hour of a 10M opening for SA and Caribbean.  This was my
first "semi-full" attempt at this contest.  My throat is killing me, I
need to use a voice recorder of some type next time.  Took a lot of breaks and
full night sleep on both Friday and Saturday.  Overall it was pretty fun, but
awfully long.
