Comments:

Overall conditions were poor. Not many JA, NA, SA, OC, AF.

40m was terrible, however 80m and 160m seemed quite good - strange!

Did not work VK, or ZS stations on any band.

Worked several S5 stations on 10m, but didn't even hear a YU on 28 MHz!
Maybe path between ZC4 - YU was too short for 10m.

Had to re-score the YU stations; CT scored most of them as 1 point
at first! The sofware also missed some of the YU prefix multipliers
which I corrected after the contest.

Thanks to all who worked me, and apologies to those who called 
but I didn't hear.
