Comments:
 
I really enjoyed the contest, despite not being able
to spend as much time as I had hoped.  Had to 
spend most of the daylight hours helping one of the
kids move--why do these things always happen on 
contest weekends?  I was too beat to stay up all 
night, so lost a few more hours catching some shuteye.
 
 
Because of the limited hours, I just stayed on 40m.  
Antenna was a double bazooka dipole.
 
I had recently relocated the ham shack to a new
(and improved) room, and this was the first test of 
the new setup.  Spent the first half hour of the contest 
ironing out software/computer issues on a system 
I thought had been thoroughly tested.  Another 
good reminder to test EVERYTHING in advance.
 
Propagation was OK, but not great.  Worked a fair
number of Europeans, but very few Pacific/Asia.
