    Comments:
       Hard to do with only one-full time and two part-time operators.
       We struggled to keep one station manned so both QSOs and Mults
       Suffered.  Ten meters surprised with some real F-layer backscatter
       to Europe and nice, strong openings to the Caribbean, rather
       than the weak, marginal ones of the last few years.  Congrats to
       K6STI for a breakthrough program; several times it copied stations
       that were simply inaudible in the headphones.

       Lots of work to do before the SSB and CW CQWW's.
