Comments:

Back from two weeks vacation and feeling very rested and needing some contest
action.  Wanted to operate WAE to earn some qualifying points for WRTC 2010.

Only part time effort.  Operate a few hours then do other things.  Tried to
catch as many openings as possible.  Came up just short of my goal of 1 Million
points.  Not enough openings on 15m.

Saturday morning on 15m, the VY2 and VO1 stations were very loud, so knew
sporadic E was in play.  Listened on 10m and found DR1A calling CQ.  Spent next
15 minutes moving stations from 15 to 10.  Was only able to work Germany.  On
Sunday afternoon, RW1AC moved me to 10m. Also worked an ON and OM2VL.

Note to Eu ops: Do not ask me about QTCs if there is a big pileup!  It just
wastes all of our time.  On Sunday there was plenty of time for QTCs!

This contest needs more activity.  Was amazing to work so many stations on 3 or
4 bands and yet they would give me numbers under 100.

Worked 7 stations on 5 bands: DK5DQ, DK8EY, DL9AWI, DM1A, DR1A, DR4A, RW1AC
Worked 50 stations on 4 bands.  

Here are the top countries for activity:

Almost nothing from Scandanavia!

This was a great test of the station in preparation for the Fall contest
season.
