Comments:

What a super contest although propagation not really good the first night with a
lot of flutter on the signals.
Glad to have Jim (ON5UM), Marc (ON6CC) and Frank (ON9CC) on board for this
contest.

The rebuild L antenna for 160m snapped during the 1st night after a heavy wind
gust of 82 km/h.

First night was great on 80m and the 2nd day 10m opened up completely.
Amazed about 20m opening Saturday as early as 05:20Z and Sunday 10m open till
17:45Z.

According to me my best ever score in a WW CW (thanks Jim, Marc and Frank for a
great time and score).

Thanks to all who heard/logged us and sorry for the ones we missed or did not
copy.
Log will be uploaded to LOTW soon and paper QSL will be processed as time
permits.
