Comments/soapbox
What a contest !  Had the best time contesting in a long time.
20m was packed wall to wall, elbow to elbow, but managed a few good 
runs.  Found guys quite cooperative to move a little one way or 
another if we encroached upon each others' "territory".
With only 24 hours invested, there just was no way to beat 
Mr.John " Canadian Contester" / VE3EJ/ Sluymer (spelling?)
I knew I was doomed when I overslept Sat. morning, then heard John on 
20m running EU, with about a 450 Q lead.  I resigned to take it 
easier and have some real fun after that.  Thanks to all who called!
It was a blast!
