Comments:

Classic radio.  One op. One radio. No cluster.  Always a decision whether to
tune for mults or go for rate.

My K3 was back at the factory for repairs so only a single FT1000D. Reminded me
how great the FT1000D sounds on SSB compared to the K3 (both rx and tx).

These contests are fun when you can operate for awhile and then take a break.
Spent some time DXing. Some time running.

Never had rates like this before.  I have had one 200+ hour from the US before,
but never 4 of them in one weekend!  Two on Sunday.  I don't usually feel loud
on 10m from here, but I did this weekend.

Excellent conditions to Japan on Sat and Sunday evening.  Long time since I had
JAs call me!

Discovered on Fri night that my 160m antenna was broken.  Fixed it on Saturday,
but ended up with only DR1A and CN2R for real DX.  Decided sleep was more
interesting both nights than fighting the low bands.

This contest is so big that it is impossible to find people. There were several
friends on expeditions that I took time to search for and I could never find
them!  That's what makes CQWW so great - its bigness!

Now to the log checking.
