Nice rates on hot bands, PSK was big disappointment, lotsa CQ - few
takers, and had to explain what a contest was!!!...

STRONG eu signals on 80 and 40 really surprised me.  Great JA signals
with very little flutter (easy print) towards end of contest...

I suggest now that there are no more US Novices (well, almost) that on 40m
the domestic QSO's should take place above 7100khz, leave the DX SSB
boys alone.

Had a 13 year old kid (friend of my son)come over (soon to be licensed) to 
watch, and with him here it forced me to operate a lot longer Saturday night 
than I usually do - I usually quit at 9pm or so... went past 11 (new record for
this old guy)..

Missed MT and DE, also VE1, VO and VY1
Three all-time new RTTY countries for me, so not a bad weekend.

Great "Point and click" Contest... Writelog performed flawless!
