Comments:

My goal was to beat last year's QSO total of 1100. I slept through my alarm by
an hour and lost some time but still ended up beating it! This contest was
frustrating. My run frequencies were stolen many times by high power guys who
didn't even bother to listen before transmitting. There seemed to be more
intentional QRM'ers and net frequency cops too. There was a guy singing using a
high pitched female voice on one of my frequencies and someone making constant
fart noises too. 

My 1st QSO was with VY1JA who I found CQ'ing on 15m before the contest. My last
needed mult was KL7. I finally got the sweep near the end of the contest while
working 3 KL7's in a row on 15m.
