Comments:
Spent too much time on 10m which rippled effected primarily 40m (see low
mults) and some on 15m.
Aside from the 10m opening, 80m was the highlight of the contest. If
someone told me I'd have a 100-Q hour on 80m and it would be my maximum
mult band, I would have laughed them off the planet!
It was great fun, sure could have used a weekend in-between.
