Comments:

I'd like to thank Krassy K1LZ, for the use of his great station.  There were a
few glitches, but overall the station performed excellently, and any
shortcomings were the fault of the operator and not the station!

I know I checked that I was SO2R, but I was for only a short time.  Turns out
there was a problem with the audio decoding for the right radio; maybe 1 out of
4 signals would decode in RTTY.  Couldn't figure out hot to get it to work, and
I didn't want to undertake any rewiring of the station, so I spent most of the
contest using only 1 radio.  I would like to have seen the score if two radios
had been fully available, but going back to 1 radio sure leaves one with lots
of spare time during the contest!

Happiness is having FT5GA call you on 20M for a double mult!

Nice to see a decent 15M opening.  Saturday was better than Sunday, but it was
still nice to get a couple of runnable hours.  LU1HF had an S9+ signal on 10M,
but he was the only non-local in the log on that band.  It will be interesting
to see how many stations K1TTT has in the log on 10M.

Congrats to K4GMH and AA3B for great Assisted scores.  Thanks to everyone for
the Qs, and hope to CU again next year!
