Comments:

A fun time was had by old hands and rookies alike. This contest remains my 
personal favorite of them all. Our QSO total including dupes was 2075, exactly 
same as last year - what were the chances of that? Conditions were indeed quite 
similar to last year with respect to timing of openings and the complete lack 
of E skip. As others have noted, the band shut down each evening like a door 
slamming shut.

For the third year in a row, we fell one short of sweeping the 50 states on 
both modes. This year Nebraska on CW was the no show. (1999 was NM on phone, 
2000 was WV on phone)

Thanks to Floyd N5FG for hosting once again this year.

p.s. I am happy that for once the Saints drew a Monday night game instead of 
Sunday afternoon during the contest.
