Comments:

Bands were terrible on Sat- only 10M QSO was with a local that I moved for the
double mult.  15M wasn't much better, with 12 QSOs/10 mults and no Europeans. 
Sun picked up a lot, wtih 15M runnable to Europe for several hours.

Heard a lot more stations on 10M backscatter, but LP just doesn't cut it there. 
Heard them easily, but they couldn't hear me (AA5AU, WA2ETU).  ZL2AMI was
loudest station on 10M.

I started the contest as SO2R, but stopped after the first hour and only used
the 2nd radio to check for band openings.  I kept running afoul of the 5-minute
rule.  I also wasn't sure if using packet in this contest would make me MS- the
rules don't explicitly state no packet- so I didn't use it.

A fun time for all, particularly when the bands were decent on Sunday.
