What a blast!  I like this contest more and more, especially since VE1 
is a mult.  I was just planning for a few hours but, conditions were 
really interesting.  I worked  several 5W QRP stations: S54AA, OK3C-3 
bands, SP4FR, DL1JQD, HG6C, HB9DAX--wonderful.  Had JA's calling me on 
20m!  I did 98% running with would you believe, an old TS-520S running 
50-100W that I just fixed up with a 500 Hz CW filter.  The receiver is a 
dream--smooth on the ears and the rejection is great. The EU pile ups 
were fantastic, many deep.  I may put the FT-1000 aside for a while. 
My 40m elevated vertical fell after some sticky snow got too it., so I 
could not capitalize on 40m as much as I wished.  In the end I stuck 
in there for a bunch of hours to give the VE1 Mult.  Again, great 
contest and this one is added to my yearly favorite contests.

Thanks to; all for hearing my TS-520S!! and the QRP guys.
