Comments: Keeping our Force-12 C3SD in tune on 10 meters during
Chicago's 2nd-worst snowstorm was like riding a unicycle, but it
performed beautifully! More DX stations should be encouraged to
enter this event. Didn't S & P enough - never heard CX, VK, UR,
for example. Thanks to all for a courteous and enjoyable contest.
