Comments:

With the plaque that was sent to me for winning 12-hour Open category last year,
Peter VP8GQ/G3LET also sent a nice book with the history of the contest until
1996. 

The book has a lot of familiar calls and also pictures of some contesters.
Seeing a picture of VK3MR took me back to my teenage years in Yugoslavia when
we could work Snow regularly in the evenings on 40 with a low dipole and 50
Watts.

I felt that awarding a plaque for a 12-hour effort was a bit too much, so I
wanted to make a full-time effort this year. 

Good conditions, a lot of rare countries, but there were also long periods with
very low activity.
