Comments:

What a slugfest! and a great time.  This year I wanted to test what an entry
level Low Power contest station (tri-bander and wires) would do from here and
compare to last years High Power effort.  Unfortunately, there is no assisted
low power category, so the comparison is not as good since I had the cluster
last year to jump around.  Big difference was on 20 meters where I had 98
countries vs 85 this year.  Raw contacts were about 200 less than before.

Very difficult to do much other than S&P with low power and 40 & 80 meters were
only good for a few mults.  New antennas for those bands in the future.  15
meters was very good with openings into all parts of the world, ZK2, FK, FO,
several Africa plus usuals were a treat.  Good to hear something on 10 meters. 
Next year should spread out some folks.  All in all a great weekend.

Thanks for the Q's and see you all next time - Jere
