Ant: 4/4 stacked yagis @ 30 & 60' fixed west, 7 ele. yagi @90'

      Wow, that was fun! This was the first time I did CW only in this contest
and am pleased with my score. The band conditions were very good but conditions
to JA were not very good. Wish I had put more time in the chair and had worked
more mults. Switching between the low stack aimed west and the high 7 element
yagi aimed at Europe most of the time worked out great. Had trouble sleeping the
first night so I checked the band at 0900z and found the band open! A61AJ was
booming in and spent the next 45 mins. working RF3A, 4L8A, OD5/OK1MU, ZC4DW,
UN5J and others before the band died until our sunrise. 
      I hope we have conditions like this next year but I wouldn't bet the ranch
on it. Thanks to all for the Q's and happy holidays to all.

      73, Jeff K1AM
