Comments:
Unfortunately we were unable to do NFD this year, so we went all-out
for this one. We were amazed how the QSO rate kept up throughout
the contest, particularly on CW. There was a lot of support for the
contest from round the world. In particular we were surprised by
the level of activity from Europeans, Japanese and US. Probably a
little less activity from the Commonwealth than in BERU, but plenty
of interesting DX to be had, including: VP8, 3B8, ZK1, V5, 7Q and of
course 9M6. 10m couldn't sustain a run, but their were a few useful
mults to be had: VP8, VK2, 9J, 5N
Overall a fantastic event, well worth running again in some form.
Having G call areas as mults might make it more interesting.
Maybe also allowing QSOs and Mults in both modes on a band as in
IOTA. We had 77 dupes as a result of the single mode rule...easier
to work them than explain.
