Comments:

Great contest.  Much more activity than the July event.  10M was not very good
but 15 and 20 were pretty decent.  40 was good and 80 was OK despite the high
noise on both bands.

Beta tested new MMTTY engine 1.64B with WriteLog and it ran error free, no F key
drop outs.  The "B" computer froze twice but it wasn't an MMTTY problem, I think
I had RFI into it the Belkin USB adapter but I was able to recover without
having to shut WL down.  The "A" computer ran 100% error free.  So 1.64B might
be our MMTTY upgrade answer.  

Also beta tested WriteLog version 10.40E and report no problems with it
either.

I was quite pleased that I surpassed my 2001 July NAQP record of 103,400 pts. by
a lot.

Some nice surprises like HR1RMG, V25WX, ZF2NT and 8P9NX.  Didn't move many to
other bands, but thanks to those that did especially VE9DX.  Too bad we didn't
make it on 10 Andy.  Lowlight was missing VE2SB on 40 and 80.

Took an hour at dinner time to eat with the honey, then took the last hour off
so I missed the KH6's on 80 too.

Was on-call at work and my cellphone kept ringing.  All kinds of calls and
e-mails on my work laptop computer and trying to run SO2R on two other computers
so it was quite the circus at times, but all in all, I had a very fun time.  I'm
glad NCJ decided to have this February event.  Looking forward to many more to
come.  Thanks to everyone for the QSO's.
