Comments:
          I had great fun in this contest. It was a real challenge
          on 5w qrp (from the TS930s) with the indoor G5RV in the 
          loft! It loads on all bands but is very poor on 160m. I had 
          405 qso's in 33 countries and the highest qso's rate was 39 
          qso's per hour. I operated for 16 of the 24 hours. 
          
          Best dx was HI3/DL1GKG/P. 10m was fairly poor again, although 
          there were plenty of very weak DL's and G's calling. I guess I
          needed a beam.        

          For those interested in stats, here's a breakdown of unique 
          calls per country. There were 256 unique calls out of the 405                  
          worked:

          DL  75, G   42, ON  18, UA  18, HB9 17, I   14, UR  12, 
          PA  12, GM   7, F    6, HA   6, UA9  5, OK   4, S5   4,
          LY   3, ER   2, EU   2, GW   2, K    2, T9   2, YL   2
          
          Plus one station in 9A, CT, EI, HB0, HI, LX, LZ, OE, OH, OM,                    
                              OZ, SP and YU.    

          Thanks to all the stations I called who were patient enough to          
          listen a few times for the callsign and to those who said how  
          strong the qrp signals were!
