Comments:
Amp was down (again) this year.  Encouraged by working SV3RF with 5 watts 
the night before the contest, I decided to try QRP.  Even more satisfying 
than with 100 W at our noisy QTH;  still could work most stations S9 or 
over.  Comparable effort last year (14 hours) yielded 525 QSOs and 72 
mults with 100 watts.  Previous HP scores were 463 Q's, 74 mults in 2007 
and 532 Q's, 60 mults in 2006.
