Comments:

Wow. Best ever contest even though I had started out not intending to do a full
time effort! Fairly good conditions on 144+ on Saturday but fairly flat
conditions on Sunday. Only a very short E-skip opening on 6M and only worked a
few distant stations there. So, it was a good brute force contest. In fact I
prefer it when 6M is not open. Lots of hard work and slow periods but more
satisfying to me.

Contest highlights:

- Best score ever in a VHF contest
- New grids worked on 903 and 1296!
- best ever effort on 1296

A special thanks to the following:

- VA3CDD/R for his great work in building a great rover (4 grids x 6 bands + 7
bands from FN15)
- VE3OIL/R for starting the contest out our way made for a hectic first few
hours
- KA1ZE for his patience while working 903 and 1296
- all the locals that came out to give us a few points

See you in January!
