Comments:

Had a great time, but came up about 1K points short of last year.  Had more QSOs
but fewer mults.  I think I spent too much time CQing, and not enough S&Ping.
Tried a 2 ft square 9-turn tuned loop for receiving, and it worked great. 
Much
quieter than my Flag loop, but still couldn't hear any DX on it.  I could hear
other stations working DX, but that was as close as I got.  Next year I'll try a
larger loop :-)
There were very few stations that I called that I didn't eventually work.  Some
were only above the whisper level, so I can't even imagine how weak I must have
been to them.  Incredible ears out there.  They must have wanted the Q every bit
as much as I did.  Only disappointment was not hearing a RI station.  I need RI
to complete my QRP WAS on 160m.  Maybe next year.
Now prepping for the Sprint.  Hope to see a bunch of you there.
73, Bob N6WG
