Well Glad this one is over with for another year  HI HI.  
 I knew I would be jumped on Sunday so I took it easy on Sat mostly H&P only 
making 200 contacts 64  sections and I was right.  Sunday was brutal. I had 
some trouble in the morning controling the pileup and apologize to the stations 
that didn't make VY1  on that try but I wasn't in the mood for the &(*&%^% that 
was going on.  It takes all the fun out of it. HI HI. If all the pileups were 
like that I would leave the radio off on contest weekends. I know some of the 
problems were  my fault but it is tough when thousands of stations are trying 
to get VY1 and there are only 2 stations on. I did learn new things about 
running the pileups and  I must say the later crowd was much better behaved and 
I started enjoying myself again getting the sweep around 23:00 with VE2AWR. 
 I don't know if I will run this one single op again.
but will be in there somewhere. 
I don't know where Jay was this year but I am going to have a few words with 
him HI HI. Thanks to the guys at the VY1VY station for taking some of the load  
and I hope to talk them into doing it again next year.
 The local club YARA does rent out the club station VY1DX for contesting if 
anybody is interested in  running VY1.  You can find the info at www.yara.yk.ca
