Comments:

This was my first time in this contest. They apparently introduced a QRP
category last year, but I missed it.

I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of activity in this contest!  It made
operating the contest a lot of fun.  I was only able to do 12 hours because of a
wedding we had to attend.  But next year I will be in it for the full 24 hours! 


The idea of using primarily zones for multipliers is interesting.  It gives me
an idea of how much of the Earth's surface I covered during the contest.  On the
other hand, the entire Carribean and most of Central America gives one
multiplier (plus a few HQ stations)!
