Comments:

Wow!  Great conditions - working QRP wasn't quite so masochistic!  Almost a
pipeline to EU on 20 and 15 and JA on 15, especially on Sunday afternoon.  And
40 and 80 were very good on Friday night, but kind of crappy on Saturday night.
 I never would have guessed 15 would outperform 20 - sunspots are nice! All and
all - a lot of fun!  

Unfortunately I had to sandwich other activities in during the weekend, so that
cut into my operating time.  But I'm very pleased with the results using QRP
from "the black hole"

There are really some great DX operators out there.  Thanks for the good ears
and patience and pulling me through the QRM and QSB!  

Rig: Yaesu FT-897D at 5 watts output
Antennas: Wilson SY-3 (3 el triband Yagi) at 48 feet and dipole at 45 feet for
40 and 80
