Comments:

This year I have deicided to operate single 20m. Unfortuantely could not operate
for the first 8 hours missing prime long path opening to Europe but managed to
partially recover on second day. Worked 340 Eu, 130 Ja and 170 North American
for average QRB of 14000 km per QSO!

For the first time ever equipment performed flawlessly. Oldish FT1000D replaced
FT920- something that should' been done long time ago!

I felt I was loud however looks like most people do not listen for signal but
prefer to see it spotted. Good run was produced sitting high up in band avoiding
big guns from EU. 

Highlights: being called by 9JKC, YS1CJA, NP4BM, 8P2K and TF3YH for double
mult.
Also being able to break US pileup for VE3EXY/2 in zone 2 and Eu's pile for
VQ9LA.

Congratulation to AA5AU for fine score and praises to his unselfish educational
work in field
of rtty contesting.

Nick VK1AA/4
