Comments:

Again, 100% Spots Worked, never Ran (when I found a new DX station had taken
over a previous spotted freq, I did spot the new station).
I made a few attempts to S&P but almost never found a station that had not
already been spotted (and, of course, worked!).

By Sunday, almost all of the running stations had been worked, and there were
serious pileups on every new station as soon as it was spotted, and I think
every station calling CQ was soon spotted.  There were even serious pileups on
VEs.

Definitely played second fiddle to K5GO in many pileups, only occasionally
getting thru first.  Did beat W5KFT and K5NA in a couple of biggies.

Some of the monster pileups were the fault of the DX who poorly managed their
frequency, causing all the idiots to come out of the woodwork and keep calling.
But some of the US multi-operator owners would be ashamed to hear what their ops
were doing, especially in the African pileups on Sunday.
