Made my usual mistake of quitting too soon, now obvious from the fact 
that several have said the last 2-3 hours were the best.  Also, probably 
spent too much time running stations and not enough looking for mults.
Florida Contest Club talked me into entering mixed mode instead of my 
usual CW only.  Sunday, N8PR told me I sounded like the Godfather!  I 
even get hoarse in a CW contest, this was torture.  No equipment problems 
and usual power line subsided somewhat.  A most enjoyable contest and 
great to see propagation again, even if EU was a little light from here.
