Comments:

Last year, I've broken the record for SOSB/40 LP of JA's.  This year
target was to make another record for the same category.

  The year, Japan had unbelievable disaster. JA7 was the area
hit.  JA1 area are also having Rolling blackout due to the
failure of nuclear plant as well as some power plants were
hit.

  Some stations were voluntarily not joined the contest due to
our disastrous situation. But I decided to join the contest.
Fortunately, this weekend is out of plan for the blackout.

  The first day, I intended to have a nap before the contest,
but it lasted too long.  Usually Caribbean comes early at 05Z
and 07Z-08Z may be a good with U.S. West coast. 

  Rather I woke up at 09Z, and started late.  I made less 40
QSO (than last year) on the first day.  The condx was really
good and West coast station was lined up 2kHz separation or
less in 40m band. It was difficult for Low Power station to
find a frequency to run.

But European window (17Z-21Z), I was able to awake on both days
and to recover to some extent.

95% was S&P. Running lasted only 20 mins to get 15 Q's.
Finally I made slight above score than of my last year.

Thank you for picking up my weak signals in QRM's, especially
European stations. 

Rig and Antenna:
TS-590 100W, Nagara NA-440(3EL with wide band driven element) at 110ft, 
and Inverted Vee at 30ft.

See you at next with CW.

I will attach the UTC-continent break down of QSO count.
Right most numbers are diff's from the last year.
Sorry if it doesn't fit your screen.
