NA=192, EU=8, SA=2, OC=1, AS=0, AF=0

Best 1-Hr rate was 50 Qs/hr (relaxed and comfortable).
Few were Contesters, and most had never heard of
the YL/OM Contest ... some just wanted to chat!

Late morning openings to EU occurred both days.
While running on 10-m&  15-m, I was surprised to
receive calls from several QRP stations, and from
mobiles (including 3 in EU: MM0HCD/M, M0YCQ/M, M0HDX/M).

Unlike most contests, there was very little QRM.
Except for those participants in the NH and LA
QSO Parties, most contesters appeared to be busy
with RTTY down in the low end of the bands.

Thanks for the Qs. 73/88 - Rita
