Comments:

The pileups on 20 & 15 just after the bands opened were the deepest and longest
I ever remember. 

Once again, my problem is finding mults, or moving them enough when found.

No visits from Murphy during the contest. No frequency fights. I heard a CT1 on
10m Friday afternoon, but no EU heard on 10m during the contest.

My biggest problem was dealing with immobility in my left arm left over from
rotator cuff surgery two weeks ago. I can't lift the arm so I had to reach
across and do switching and some tuning with my right arm. I did the first 26
hours straight, and when I got up I was hoping the left arm wouldn't be frozen
from staying in the same place so long. It wasn't, but it sure was sore.

Overall, that was a lot of fun. 

73, Ken, K6LA / VY2TT
