Comments:

Since I started the contest with Telnet and the RBN with the FD filter still in
I was compelled to enter as M/S but gained quick access to the Canadian calls. 
I checked the rules sometime in the first hour and found out about using
clusters but it was fun in the long run

The advantage us 3's have to EU in dx contests is somewhat dented with the
closeness of VE3, especially for me being 5 miles from the NY border in central
PA, hi.  Couldn't work those weak close in stns.  This was the biggest effort I
have had in RAC summer or winter.

Next time I might turn off Telnet and go single op cw but it was nice to work
those RAC stns before they might have left the band.  Who knows, maybe next
year I'll do phone too, egad.  Enjoyed working Summer, VE5SDH, at VE5RAC. 
Worked them on 3 bands and am sure at least 2 of those were with her in the
headphones.
