Comments:

While I'm not really a SSB guy, I won't say that I didn't enjoy this contest. I
made myself a goal to get a clean sweep this contest (slightly unrealistic, I
know), and I did not end up so far from it. I got all the sections in the 1, 8,
and 9 call areas, and I only missed one in the 2, 4, 5, 6, and 0 areas. I only
managed to get three of the Canadian sections. 

N1MM managed to mess up my log, because I ended up with 193 QSO's and a serial
number of 194. I'm afraid that it shifted all of the serials up 1. If so, then
I am really in trouble.

Near the end the bands got extremely noisy, and I had to work as hard as I
could to copy people. 

I operated the entire time with only 40 watts, and received a LOT of "Great
Signal" comments. Enjoyed it a lot and can't wait for the next CW one to come
around. 

Rig: TS-520 @ 40 watts
Antenna: 102 ft doublet up 75
Logging: N1MM Logger on a Macbook Pro (VMWare Fusion)
