Comments:

Thanks to Jacky, P43P, for use of his great station.

Congrats to D4B for new record, breaking P40W's (W2GD) score which was
approaching a decade in age, and PR0F for great low band numbers.

Good news:  
(1) Finally used SO2R to full effectiveness with ~100 2nd radio Q's.
(2) Great Weather on the beach.
(3) Still lots of fun.

Bad news:  
(1) Too much time for 2nd radio - difficult generating sustained rate on run
radio.  All WW CW contests have become Euro-centric and, with US Memorial Day,
this one is particularly so.  
(2) Overslept 3 hours Sunday AM
(3) Zigged when I should have zagged.  Conditions notably different from last
year's winning effort and, if I could do it over again, I would change times off
significantly.  Only one decent hour to Europe on 10 meters (Sunday PM).  Heard
guys to East running and running Europe.
