Comments:

Got off to good start but bogged down a bit on the low bands. Mase better use of
SO2R this year but you can sure sound like a lid when someone calls you while
working a station on the second radio. Beat last years score by 75 Q's so have
to feel pretty good. Nice to have VE4EAR call me Sunday morning to complete the
sweep. Think I worked every section at least twice except NNY. Thunderstorms in
the area Sunday afternoon but other than static discharge on the SteppIRs they
did not cause a problem.
