A most interesting contest.  Too bad it started 24-36 hours too late to capture
the best conditions.  As it was, great start and then someone turned out the
lights about 06z.  Did get a final run into Eu on 20m during the last 90
minutes.  Just one of the advantages of being so far to the East.

The VY2ZM station is amazing.  Incredible radio location right on the water. 
Very nice place to spend some time relaxing and watching sunsets as well.  K1ZM
is a wonderful host who welcomed my son Andrew and I into his home for the
weekend.

I came up to see the station and experience the low band antennas.  They work!
Seemed the Eu stations were having more trouble hearing than we were so it made
for lots of calls at times. ? Y? UY? UY2? ZM? UY2ZO? UY2ZM? Oh, VY2ZM. QSL.

The breakdown below tells the story.  It was off to the races with 60 QSOs in
first 15 minutes. The challenge was to find time among the runs to remember to
chase multipliers on the second radio.  Missed a lot of easy HQ stations on 15m.
 Despite a nice 10m opening to Europe on scatter, couldn't get through to DA0HQ
and a few others.

Worst signal of the weekend award goes to S59ABC who had some kind of spurs all
across 20m.

Now for the 13 hour (650 mile) drive back to home.

Thanks to everyone for the great activity and fun!  Europeans know the code!!

73,

Randy, K5ZD
