Comments:

After hearing 4W3ZZ Friday morning via long path on 160, I decided I better use
Packet to monitor him in the contest.  I just had fun and went to bed early both
nights (04z Friday and 05z Saturday) to be fresh for 4W3ZZ's sunrise at 0940z. 
Unfortunately I never heard a trace of him. 

A few comments:

*Most of the time I felt like I was under an absorption blanket.
*Only had one decent run from 02-03z Saturday.
*UA9AT in zone 17 was a nice surprise near the end of that run.
*Two zone 38's called me over Europe (3DA0NW and ZS4TX).

It was quite interesting to see who showed up in the Packet pileups.  It will be
even more interesting to see what category they enter.  ;-)

Thanks to all for the fun and your patience digging me out of the noise!

73,  Bill  W4ZV

P.S.  If you haven't heard, VY2ZM broke the world record on Topband by a factor
of two.  1712/28/100 = 561.28k  Truly amazing in all aspects!  Congrats Jeff!
