I f anything  the CQWWCW  separates the men from the boys !!  
Having said that I wish I might find  myself in the later category but alas
we can't  go back hi !  
Managed to stay reasonably alert for about  35 of the 48  considering some other
issues
I don't bore people with ...........that in itself seemed to be major feat  hi
!

15 Meter monobander which I had intended to us as the mainstay in a single band
effort
suddenly developped an intermittent just before the contest...... ooh well  
What was it Robbie Burns said about
the best laid plans  etc ... 
Conditions from Here were as good as I have ever heard them  even during the
cycle peak , there might not have been
as  much  real long  haul  stuff  but when  you don't stop and look you never
really find out until the countries totals  are posted.

Amplifier decided not to work on Sunday Morning  so finished the remainder of
the contest with 100 watts from the 1000MP.

Congrats to Dave ex VE2ZP   now  VO1AU  who did very well from his new
location........  now he  knows what we all know over here,
too bad  towers and aluminum  have a bad habit of blowing  down so his
conservative approach to antennas will probably stand him 
very well over  time  hi!
Now it's  back to antenna work and coax  cables for me for another  while until
winter decides to arrive , fortunately we seem to have a reprieve here
albiet temporarily or otherwise.
C'Y'ALL NEXT ONE  GLWCDR  es thanks for the Q's
