 In the life of contests, there are point-takers and point-givers, I was 
 the later in this contest! The weather was too nice (80+F) to be inside,
 so just messed around. If I could get points for a 20+ mile bicycle ride 
 on Sat, and the Brookfield Zoo with the XYL on Sun, I might be ok, hi.

 Highlight of the contest was hearing E4/OK5DX...low point was not being 
 able to work E4 for a mult or a new country before (or even after!) the
 huge pileup began. Also worked two JY9's and an HZ, cool! At 1244z the 
 first day, the farmer started plowing his corn/soy field for QRN deluxe!
 Before that at 10z was a nice opening to PAC, EU and SA all at the same 
 time...geez maybe that vertical does have an advantage, HI!
 About 99.9% S&P...such is life.  
 
 This is to certify that in the contest I have operated my transmitter
 within the limitations of my license and have observed fully the rules
 and regulations of the contest.
