Comments:

Conditions seemed reasonably OK at the start, with some good VK/ZL signals on
the low bands, and by the time Bill went up to 20, the G's were in nicely. Then
Murphy started giving us hi SWR readings on the 20m array and we sacrificed an
amplifier, but he still was unhappy. So with the 20m problem still undetermined
- either up the tower or in the 350 feet of underground feeder - neither of
which was going to be located or repaired on the spot, we decided to cut things
short and enter the 12 hour category.  The Eu run on 20 was over anyway, and
from Western Canada, it would be slow going for the rest of the contest
anyway.
