Counting my offtime, it's just more than 24 hours.  I
guess that means 24 hours of operaing time.  Looking back,
I wish I would have operated much more, as conditions were
great.

Last time I did this contest, it was from the KS9K superstation
back in 1995.  I had over 1000 QSOs, but only 706k points,
running two radios.  DX multipliers are way up this year.
My previous best was 71 zones and 165 countries.  My states
are down, previous low was 151.  Att that in a part time
effort.  Just goes to show you how good conditions were and
how good participation was.

10 and 15M was just unbelivable.  I was running Europe at
2pm local (19z) barefoot.  That was great.  Lots of great
DX on.  9M6, JY, GM/s, 3B8, HB0, SV9, HZ, 4S7, 5B4 all calling
me.  Lots more nice stuff that I called.  Just short of DXCC in
24 hours.  Nice.
