Comments:

This was the first contest I have done from a "BIG" station. I was lucky enough 
to operate from my brothers station (KK9A) while he was in aruba (P40A). There 
is a big difference going from a 3 element triband beam @ 40 feet high to a 
stack of Monoband beams. I was hoping for better conditions but you get what is 
given. It was very fun holding a spot on the band and having people call me 
instead of having to constantly turn the dial because I keep getting bumped out 
of my spot. I have realised another advantage of having good antennas. When the 
idiots start sending code and carriers at you, you can still work people over 
them. This was very pleasing to me. They eventually leave when they realize 
that they are doing no good as to keeping you from contesting. I would like to 
thank my brother again for letting me use his station, and I look forward to 
contesting from my new location in South Carolina next year. Thanks also to all 
the people that called me. It was fun.
