  Totals   2428     5858   2.4      922  =   5,401,076

This score is close, but need to fix a couple calls not in the country
file.


Operators:  WE9V + KS9K, N0BSH, WX9E

Lots of good stuff on:
3C, 3V8, 5B4, 7X, 9G, 9H, 9J2, 9K2, 9M6, 9U, A6, A7, A92Q, BV, FK (20-80)
FO, HS, J5, JW, JY, KH8 (40/80), OD, S07NY, TJ, XU6WV, ZD7, ZK2

Overall, a great contest.  Not too bad of a score from the Black Hole.

Worked a good number of Europeans on 80, not easy to do from Wisconsin.
Can't wait until the 3 element goes up.  It ought to be killer on CW too.
(The 2el only does SSB.)

Don't know how I/we end up with all those prefixes every year.  Only the
three big M/Ms had more prefixes with a LOT more QSOs.

Thanks for the Qs everybody.

Now to hang up the microphone....until CQ WW SSB.  It's "summer vacation"
from ham radio/contesting.
