Comments:

For at least a year my K9AY receive loop had been acting up in very strange
ways. With the help of my good friends, Charlie, KG2V and fellow-FRCer Ryan,
N2RJ, we put in more than a full day of troubleshooting and repairing two nasty
wiring problems. It was declared fixed around 8:30 Saturday night....at which
time the XYL insisted I go out and be a sociable host to a houseguest.

When I finally got some radio time, after everything that had gone on, I just
wasn't in the mood to play radio, but I got on and made a few Qs in S&P mostly
though I kept the cluster up just in case. I had a great rhythm going until the
ZL9 was spotted just after 05z. I abandoned the contest instantly and spent the
next while chasing all-time New One #327/330.

Next year, guys. This is one of my absolute favourite contests most years but I
just wasn't into it. Maybe it starting in November had something to do with it.
