Happy New Year to all!

I did the Stew Perry from W0AIH using NA v9 set up forr a vhf contest. 
To whom do I submit my log for conversion to TR, and in what form?  I've
been reading scores off the www version of this reflector and I'm
anxious to know where I fit in :-)

I think this is bound to become a really popular contest.  It was great
fun for me!  I discovered that I could pretty easily go one night
without sleep, and it was fun to locate grids on a map with each new
QSO.

I decided to go low power (100w), and I think it was the right decision
based on AIH's central location and antennas.  Domestic participation
was not quite what I had hoped for, but not bad for the first running of
the contest.  

Conditions between WI and Northern Europe were exceptionally good.  My
160 experience is limited, but I don't recall ever hearing so many
strong signals all on the same night. I logged G, GM, SM(7 of them),
OH(2), DJ, and UA2. No Africa, Pacific, Asia, or So America, though.

No final score yet, but here's the basic info:
Station: W0AIH (operator KM0O)
Power: 100w (SOLP)
Antennas: elevated full-size quarter-wave ground plane, full-wave loop
(top at 175'), 3-el wire beam in a ravine pointed SE, and lots of
beverages.
QSOs: 308
Grids: 158

Thanks to all who participated. I'm looking forward to next year...
