Comments:

Thanks for the many stations willing to hang in there and repeat their call or
exchange.  There was a tremendous noise level here the first night with much
improvement the second night. The few EU stations I worked the second night were
relatively strong.  Perhaps it's a function of age, but I had one
disappointment.  In the wee hours I inadvertently called CQ in the DX window and
was immediately met with a very loud "LID!"  My apologizes to whoever I offended
- but I thought this was the "Gentlemen's Band." "Pse QSY DX" or something along
those lines would have worked just as well.

I agree with ZF2NT's comments regarding the scoring for DX stations.  All in all
I had fun.

Joe
