Comments:

Really bad Condx during first night. To top that ice built up on the antenna and
tuned it to 3740 and became useless. At around 2:00 in the morning I had to
clime up to the roof on a very ice ladder and deice half of the antenna that I
could reach. The SWR went up to 3800 so at least I could operate. On Saturday
took down the whole antenna and cleaned from the ice. Couple of highlights:
I was called by ZY7C, VP5, HP1, SP4 and broke the pile up on NH6P and CE1/K7CA,
not bad for 100W at all...:-)
I was chased away few times saying DUPE QSO. I do not understand why people are
so sure that the contact was not busted on my side or may be not even enterd.
When they refuse the contact that means they will be penliezed for the qso that
is only in their log. I worked some dupes and it takes only seconds to make the
"second" contact. Takes lot less time than arguing about a dupe qso. 

CU in the SSB part
