Soapbox:
  Hope everyone enjoyed Canada Day!  As always, nice to see the VEs across 
Canada take some of their holiday time to drop by and exchange QSOs.

  I see Todd, VE5MX has piloted the VE6JY station to a new Canadian record 
- GREAT JOB Todd!

  Given we are at the top of the sun spot cycle, conditions were somewhat 
disappointing. 10m was pretty much a no show, only the local guys I 
persuaded to QSY.  15m was not much better, but was at least open for a 
short time.  20m was the bread and butter band this year with a noticeable 
number of DX stations participating in the Contest.  40m and 80m were their 
typical noisy summer bands, but propagation was better than average. I 
think some people missed some opportunities by going to bed early.  160 is 
tough on a city lot but thanks to those that dug out my weak signal.

  As always, great fun!  Thanks to those who dropped by for a quick chat... 
see you all in the next one.

73, Bart - VE5CPU
