Comments:

Thought the contest was last weekend.  Had a few guys scheduled to do a M/S but
when we realized we had the wrong date it was too late to reschedule everything
so I ended up doing SO.

Thanks to K2QM and N2EA for fixing the 80/160 antenna's and beverage and the
DVARC for the use of the station.

Nothing broke except 10 and 15 meters.  Never heard 160 meters signals so
loud.

Started the contest at about 0200 utc sunday.  40 stayed open to EU until 4am
local and then I took a two hour break.

Had fun trying to push the rate meter...still have a long way with my skills
compared to many of the great cw ops in the contest and thank you to all who
were patient with me when I fumbled every once in a while.  If you were trying
to work me on 7039 during the end of the contest, there was terrible QRM in
addition to the pile. Was happy to find a spot at 7005 and that pile was much
more enjoyable.
