Comments:

Due to station problems, I started one-half hour late!
Worked a dozen Asia-Pacific countries on 15m and 20m,
then went to sleep, so I could work JAs at o-dark-thirty 
on 40m.

Then at sunrise, I could start working Europeans on 20m.
And Carib and SA all day. Finally JA and Pacific all 
afternoon and evening. I even heard a JA on 10m, but 
alas, he couldn't hear my QRP signal.

40m on Saturday night was pretty good considering QRP.
Sunday was another day of S&P on 20m and 15m.

10m had signals, but many too weak to hear my QRP 
response, so 15m yielded better.

DX stations who don't identify should be disqualified.
Yes, the packet cluster provides your pileup, but 
the operators who are actually tuning and waiting are 
disgusted with you.

Summary, a total of 87 unique DXCC entities, and I 
nearly tripled my score from last time I operated CQWW 
CW as QRP in 2008 - so good enough!

A big THANK YOU to the stations who listen hard and 
spend a minute to work a weak signal! I appreciate it!
