Poor HF conditions and heavy thunderstorms in the W1 area made this a tough
one! Static crashes were horrendous on all bands. 68% Europe and 28% North
America. Hardly any propagation to the Far East killed chances for JA runs
and lots of multipliers. Operator fatigue is becoming more and more of an
issue as I get older -- I wonder why? Oh well, maybe next year...
