Comments:

Great 20 meter European opening on Friday night.  As a result this was my best
score in the past three years' WPX contests.  Unusual weather pattern for this
time of year caused a lot of local static crashes that hindered digging out the
weaker signals at times on 40 meters Saturday morning.  First 160 meter QSO ever
in this contest and it was worth six points and a new multiplier!  Lots of fun
on six bands.
