Comments:

A kind of a part-time effort this year. Since the bands were also part time, the
effort seemed to match the mood of the bands.  Sometimes the band (20m) seemed
impressive only to wane about an hour later.  

15m never seemed good to me - it seemed to play like 6m sporadic e type -
wagging the antenna for backscatter and when you worked two or three in rapid
fire...it was in a specific area and then it went dry.

Bad habits are creeping into RTTY contesting...I can't tell you how many times
I had to call guys AGAIN right after the QSO to get a confirm.  They don't
acknowledge and go on to work the next guy and you are wondering if you worked
him or not....RTTY is slow enough without having to redo Q's ... oh well.

Diddle diddle dee,
WN6K, Paul
