Equipment Description:

	Transceiver: Index Labs - 5 Watts
	Antennas: TA33-M Tribander at 32 Feet, Trap Dipole for
		160, 80, and 40 that is up 30 feet in the center
                and 10 feet at each end.  Cushcraft R-7 Vertical

Conditions were incredible.  There was an hour or two each morning where it
seemed every European I called came back, even the weak ones....Very unusual
for me since I only operate QRP.

Worked XW2A on 10 Meters for # 285 QRP.  At one point I Worked All Continents
on 40 Meters with my low trapped dipole and 5 Watts in 52 minutes. 

This is almost double my previous high score in this contest in 10 years of
entries
