Comments: QRP on 40 Meters??!! What a sickness I have. Actually
it was better that I originally thought. Last year there were 3
stations ( 1 W/VE, 2 JA ) that operated in the CW contest
and Zero in the SSB contest. It's amazing to me how many stations
do not zero beat prior to calling a DX station. Zero beating works 
and I have 118 contacts in the log because of it. Best pileup was
Jim at ZD8Z, worked him in 5 calls. 

This is to certify that in this contest I have operated
my transmitter within the limitations of my license and have
observed fully the rules and regulations of the contest.
