Comment: This was much too quiet, save for the weak and poor auroral
         auroral opening at the end of the contest.  Oddly, when the
         aurora began, a number of stations showed up on 2m who hadn't
         bothered to turn their beams north until then.   I'll keep at
         it, but I'm finding VHF contesting very very boring.
