Comments:

Station setup - TS850 100w ant R7000 at 10'.  Software Writelog v10.  

All Qso's but 2 were from S&P.  Tried Writelog for first time and just loved
the bandmap with internet connection to packetcluster.  Also amazed at just how
many busted calls are spotted(!!!).  Used the spots to detect that the country
was active on that freq and then listened to get the call!

100w to a vertical spells frustration with bouts of elation!  You just have to
love this one!  Great conditions, missed being able to do serious effort and
having no antennas for 80 & 160.  Had lots of fun breaking some pile-ups and
marvelled at some of them!  Biggest pile-up missed was proabably A61Aj (not
counting some that were so big I never even tried!)  Biggest pile-up broke was
proabably OX/N6AA.  

Many thanks to all the fine ops who managed to pull my peanut signal out of the
mayhem!

I am hoping to get my tower up in the spring so watch out next year!
