     Comments: Didn't intend to operate.  Didn't even know, quite truthfully,
       that the contest was this last weekend.  But once I started, it was like
       the proverbial potato chip.  I couldn't stop.  Good practice for the 
       upcoming season.  And this will be the first season I make some serious
       efforts after a couple of years of practice.  It would really be nice,
       and this is only a suggestion, if all of the great California ops I worked
       this weekend would take DXpeditions to various far away places for CQWW.
       That way, I know I'd work the DX that's out there.  It would really help
       my score.  So make your travel arangements now and give special notice to
       trips to the 50 most needed countries.  And, if one of you wouldn't mind,
       head back to Heard.  I missed them the last time.  Hi Hi.  Thanks for a
       fun contest. 
                                                                      
                                                                      
                                                                      
                                                                      
                                                                      
 
 
     I have observed all competition rules as well as all regulations 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
     contest committee.
