I split my time equally between the W4ML at W4HZ multi-op as the first night
operator and my home station on the second night. This way I could add more
points to the club score.  The better antennas (Tx & Rx) and higher power at
W4ML yielded a greater number of multipliers but I actually made a few more Q's
at home the second night due the the greatly improved conditions.  The fantastic
opening to EU allowed me to actually run EU stations which has never occured
before in my experience in 160 contests at my station and I was even able to
work a JA and a UA0 station for the first time ever on 160! 

Thanks for the Q's.  CU in this one next year.

73,
Puck W4PM
