Comments: Very pleased with myself during and right after the
contest. Not that much any more after seeing some of the other
european's SOAB-scores. Seems that even though propagation is
excellent we face hard times in northern latitudes. But so much
for complaining.
Operating in good propagation is always a thrill. 15 was incredible.
Run to JA very good on Saturday. Not so high rates but steady flow of Qs.
On Sunday daytime (UTC) bands were open but rates remained poor.
Propably lack of stations? Anyway I had off times to take so tactically
this race was good. Except the last two hours. Rate was high and sprits
even higher but time run out and had to close down at 22 UTC.
Results are quite good. A new OH-record acchieved with 1 M marginal. 
Score scaled to local MS-stations I can be happy.
Finally the thanks to -portion: of course Peter OH5NQ himself for
letting me to use his excellent station, and everybody else thanks for
nice QSOs.
