Comments:

Just a part-time effort, but I sure got sucked in to the excitement of it all. 
Friday night seemed very slow, but things improved on Saturday, and there were
nice runs to Europe on 20M on Sunday morning.  

Highlights were working several Europeans two hours before sunset on 40M, and
working Europe right at sunset on 80M, something I've never experienced from STx
during CQWW (usually able to get through at Eu Sunrise).  

I always try to "sweep" HC8N on all six bands, and, as usual, they didn't
disappoint me this year.

My little low-wire, low power station still works pretty well overall, but I
think I can tweak things a little bit for next year and give it a full-time
effort. I think the level of activity was down this year and overall scores will
be down also, but still not bad considering we're at the bottom of the cycle. 
73,  Paul
