Comments:

Fantastic band conditions. It was nice to see 10 meters open to EU for a good
part of both days. 15 meters was open to EU almost constantly. Even though I
had very little success on 20 meters, that band never closed. Had great runs to
Asia both days and one nice run to EU on 15 meters Sunday afternoon. The Europe
run is pretty uncommon from the Pacific Northwest...(The RF Black Hole of the
USA). 40 meters was great for running Asia both mornings. Also had a handful of
EU stations there Saturday night. I didn't even bother with 80 meters this
year.

Power line noise continues to be an issue at my QTH. I hope a second visit form
the utilities company can be more help than the first visit. With that said
thanks to all who had the patience to give me fills. I'm sorry to those who I
had to cut loose after multiple tries.

Highlights:
* All time personal best score for WPX
* Even QSO count between Europe and Asia
* Avg of 2.5 pts per QSO was a personal best
* My highest ever WPX count (930)

Thanks to all the weekend warriors who enjoy handing out Q's even tough they
are not contesters themselves. There were many " You're 59 00?"
replies on Sunday. These folks really helped the Q-Count.

Hope to meet some familiar calls later this week at Visalia!!

Cheers,
Dean KW7XX
