Comments:

This was my best-ever contest by far!

The propagation ghods were fickle this year. 15 was great all weekend and 10
wasn't bad on Saturday but the low bands just stank to high-heaven. I had no
luck whatsoever on 80 this time around, and that's usually a solid performer
here. Worked 39 zones overall (just couldn't bust the TR8CA pileup for Zone 36)
and over 100 on two bands.

All station equipment performed flawlessly. My rotor got one heckuva workout
but seems happy. Had a few issues with N1MM Logger that I think may be related
to it not liking Windows 7. I may resurrect my XP box for the major contests
since that always worked 100% reliably in that capacity.

All in all I'm very happy with the results. Hopefully we'll have good low bands
as well as sunspots for 10 and 15 for my next major effort (ARRL-SSB 2011).
