Comments:

2012 SFI = 122   A = 20   K = 2-4
2011 SFI =  89   A = 12   K = 2
2010 SFI =  74   A = 17   K = 4

And I thought last year was bad. Had one fewer mult than 2011, despite a bunch
more hours in the chair. 

Ran a few European callers on 20M Sunday, which surprised me given the A-index
of 20-plus, flaring, and high auroral levels.

While I enjoyed the contest as much as ever, low Canadian particiation in the
CW bands was frustrating. Really disappointed to work only 123 Canadian QSOs
(95 unique calls). The CW-only category needs more incentive to get folks to
plug in a key.

Special thanks to our American cousins. Without all the non-Canadian activity,
this would be one heck of a slow outing in the CW bands.
