10CW      1          
15CW      2
20CW     33
20SSB     6
40CW     28
80CW      7

Total CW     71 x 3 = 213 pts and 15 mults
Total SSB      6 x 2 = 12 pts and 5 mults

Final Score  =  225 x 20 mults = 4,500 x 2 (low power mult) = 9,000 pts

I enjoyed it as usual, and improved my score a lot from last year.  The 
response to my CW CQ's was gratifying, but I don't know what happened to 
everyone on phone.  It grew frustrating listening to WA3HAE scoop up 
stations on 10m while I heard almost nothing above 20m.  I definitely 
need an antenna that can work closer in on 10 and 15m.
