Comments:

We entered as M2 category only to enjoy having no band change restrictions.  
Not our best effort but we're content with our results, using only tribanders
at 40' and 55', phased verticals on 80 and an inverted L on 160. 
Due to illness and unplanned commitments we had only 2 ops.  Neither of which
could stay awake late, lost valuable Qs both Fri & Sat night on 80 & 160.  
We couldn't hear a thing on 10 meters & 15 meters wasn't much better, which
left us fighting for space on 20 meters.  
We couldn't find a decent run frequency low on 20 so we went up the band around
14.105, I'm sure the PSK guys weren't happy.  
I sure wish the guys with the key clicks would fix their rigs. 
Next the dreaded ARDX SSB Test, ugh. 
Thanks to all for the Qs, Pse QSL via LoTW, Bureau or Direct.
73, 
Marty - W2CG
