Comments:

I didn't have a goal in mind when the contest started -- just wanted to work at
building my contesting skills -- but as the final hour approached I found
myself within striking distance of 100K points (a big deal for this little
pistol!).  20 was the only band with any activity and I had picked it over
pretty well. . . and the few new stations that came up were piled up like rare

DX.  In the last half hour I worked a pileup to get KG6DX for my last mult,
then found a hole and banged away furiously for the last 20 minutes.  As time
ran out, I REALLY wanted that 100K score and a run of JA's in the final minutes
was bringing it nearer.  With less than 2 minutes to go, I crossed the 100K line
and managed one more Q for good measure before the flag dropped (with
JA4DQX/QRP!!).  Mni tnx to the JA's that brought it home for me!  And tnx to
all the other good ears and great ops for making it a fun contest.
