Comments:

Great contest as always, conditions seemed pretty good stateside, not
much DX.  The JAs were very strong Saturday morning, but I didnt realize that 
until I started calling CQ and heard the response.  Sunday morning JA signals
seemed
weeker and I didn't work many more, except right at my sunrise.  I worked a
total of 43
over the weekend.  I was very pleased to hear and work GI0KOW Saturday night at
about
1130pm my time.  He wasn't very strong, but he was there.  The only Eu I heard.
 JT1C
called me Saturday morning, he was very strong.

I started working the contest remotely using my TS480 and SGC 500watt amp.  I
decided to 
drive out to the station (80miles away) and work the rest locally with my IC756
Pro II and 
AL-1200.  The extra 700 or so watts helped, and there is nothing like having a
keyer paddle
at your finger tips rather than a computer keyboard.

Thanks for all of the QSOs.  My antenna is a 45' high inverted L over 66 1/8
wave radials;
my station is located at 3300' in the California High Desert near Victorville.

   Dana, K6NR
