Comments:

This is my lowest score of the past 15 years (that's as far as I went back)and
it looks like the first time 15 meters did not open to Europe for at least part
of one day for me..  In 1997 I had 1,259,646 1409/298 but in 1998 conditions
really improved 2,976,162 2597/382.  This last 3 year stretch by far has been
the longest span of bad conditions.

I was on a bad 20 meter frequency and had bad RFI in my headphones Saturday
morning thus my poor rate.  

This not being much fun, I probably should have pulled the plug but I just
couldn't quite do that after investing so many hours and didn't want to break
my string of competitive operating.  I am going back over the scores and I
think I have operated this contest for every year but one or two for the last
30 years. 

On 40 only got a "Radio Echo ?" from a JA and after a lot of tries to several
JA's no Q's.  

Thanks to all for the Q's and all the repeats. I said this last year and really
hesitate to say it again but it has to be up from this.

My scores back to the last minimum.
