 Great contest! My first serious effort on 160. I made alot of stupid "tactical"
 errors because of my lack of knowledge about this band. For example, I didn't find
 the JA's until my time was just about up and I spent way too much time trying to
 run.  Live and learn, I guess.  Working DX on 160 is no problem at W9JA - got pretty
 much everybody on the first call and the Beverages really play!  I figure I should
 have had at least 2K. The low score is due entirely to "operator error" and not
 equipment. Many thanks to Paul for the opportunity, encouragement, and hospitality! 

 I have observed all competition rules as well as all regulations established
 for amateur radio in my country.  My report is correct and true to the best
 of my knowledge.  I agree to be bound by the decisions of the Awards Committee.
