Comments:

Great conditions Sat. Beautiful light show on Saturday night signalled a repeat 
of last year.  But the light show was worth it!  (Maybe)  At this latitude 
(46N, 79W) it wiped us out till about 1300z when signals started coming back.

Rigs worked ok but had problems with PW1 amp causing clipping early in contest. 
 LK500 developed sticky antenna changeover relay requiring a hard knock to drop 
it to receive after each transmission.  Our callsign is now Victor Alpha Three 
Sugar Kilo, Whack!
