What a tough workout this contest was. Aurora was up to 10 during the first
half of the contest, and A=23 at one point. Things slowly (very slowly) settled
down and were much better by Sunday morning.

Friday night and Saturday were horrible, with rate very slow and conditions
about as bad as they get.

Sunday was much better, with Europe workable on 20M and 15M, but very little on
10M except some very welcome South American activity. Just not a lot of depth
there. Sure makes a difference in mults when Europe kicks in over the pole.
Happy to work 75 JA stations on 15M, but where were they on 20M? (zero worked
there).

Worked only 68 countries -- well below par, but so were conditions. Not one for
the personal record book, but still had enough fun to justify 24 hours in the
chair.
