QSO "surprises" for this first-year QRP contest newbie in my first real
CQWW-DX-CW were: C53 (20M), CY0 (40M), D44 (10M, 15M), VO1 (15M), XT2 (20M) and
ZD8 (40M).

Thanks to K9NS, W3LPL, VE3EJ and K1TTT for being my only four Q's on 160M. Also
thanks to EA8ZS for Q's on 80, 40, 20 and 15 meters. Saturday night was a big
improvement over Friday night's QRN on 160M and 80M.

Yaesu FT-817 QRP transceiver, 5 watts to 5-MHz OCF 28-ga insulated wire stealth
antenna up 40 feet in heavy foliage trees next to I-75 in downtown Atlanta
industrial area.
