Wow again to TR and KI.  And to ZD and IC and NT.  Close top 5 this
time.  Hope my log is cleaner than last time, so I won't lose position. 
Nice to make it over 350 again.

I've got to figure out how to do better in the second hour.  The switch
from 20 to 40 never seems to jump up like the start on 20.  Maybe I'm 2R
distracted at first; I dunno.  2R seemed to help a lot later.  Last 20
minutes was 35 q's WOW!

  Plus OM3CG and VK5GN (Hrd HC8N and CT1BOH)

Heard CBA KP twice before I figured out who he was.  Looks like at least
55 mults were out there to be worked (reports of VE2AWR, Iowa, NDak,
FS5PL, ZF2NT, VE6, and KP4).

Some really FB QRP and LP scores out there!
