Comments:

This is my highest score in this contest.  The last time we had conditions like
this was in 1999 when I set my previous W7 record score of 782K.  This year I
had to endure power line noise in the direction of Europe most of the weekend,
so I am very glad that technology has progressed to the point where effective
noise blankers can handle contest conditions.  Thank you Elecraft.

Here is a brief comparison of my two highest scoring years from AZ using the
same antenna system:
1999 SO1R QRP 686 1882 2.74 417 784,794 -> final 782,080
2012 SO2R QRP 764 1990 2.60 452 899,480

Both years featured simultaneous Europe and JA propagation on 15 meters.  I
didn't think I'd live to experience that again in this contest.  Great fun!

Thanks for the contacts and your patience.
