Comments:

This was my first contest in several years, and anly heard about the IARU a 
week prior. I downloaded Writelog 4 days befor the test, and was very happy 
with it. I plan to contest this fall, so this gave me a bunch to think about. 
For the most part the old equipment did fine, an Icom 751A, homebrew 4-1000, 
Bobtail on 80, 2 el shorty forty at 115', and the 22 yr old KT34-XA at 100'. 
The old T2X rotator is tired, and 14 hours into frey, the old amp tank circuit 
required my 200 watt sheet metal iron to reach down in and effect a repair. The 
two high bands were very thin, and twenty was thick with action from the 
evening until QRT. I could hear the Europeans on forty after sunset, but they 
didn't seem to be listening up at that time. It was a treat though being called 
by D44BS on my frequency on 40! Thanks to all the Pacific and Asian stations on 
the bands, they were great! If not for all the US and Canadian stations, it 
wouldn't have been much of a test here, they accounted for 58% of my Q's.
