Comments:

This was a tough one, band conditions were crap.  There was little if any paths
to Europe - stranegly enough did work VK/ZL on 40M.  Only in the last few hours
on 40M was a good "run" established.  This was mainly a contest of search and
pounce.  Our last contest was CQ WW WPX RTTY and we were spoiled with great
conditions.

We have been training a number of new ops.  In WPX was able to work them
through running a frequency.  This contest they all became comfortable with
search and strike.  They came through the exercise in a very commendable
fashion.  They rose to the occasion and dove in.

We are still running on a Steppir with broken element - but expect to have
addressed soon.  Foolishly we did a lot of software upgrades before the
contest.  The system / flex oriented performed great.
