Comments:

After entering the last two years as CW only I convinced station owner VE7UF to
enter as a multi-single in 2015 to see if we could better VA3RAC's 2014
record.

Conditions were as expected from the low solar flux. 
The 160m and most of the 80m QSO's were the result of QSY's from 40m.
40m was all right, 20m and 15m were playing very well. 10m was dead, dead,
dead.

Canadian activity was great with almost 50% of our 800+ QSOs coming from
stations in the Great White North. As usual, our American cousins joind the
fray in numbers . Not much DX from these parts, our 100W did not make it very
far. Running low power gave a whole new meaning to "A Mari Usque Ad
Mare" , especially on the low bands.

Just after dawn on Sunday I clicked on the wrong thing in N1MM (Spot All
S&P QSO's) and spotted a few dozen of my QSOs on the cluster. The problem
was quickly rectified thanks to an anonymous helper who pointed it out to me in
no uncertain terms on 20m SSB.  My apologies for the inconvenience this caused,
lesson learned.

At the end no records were broken but great fun was had. 

Thanks to all who called and hope to CU AGN on July 1, 2016.

73, Gabor, VE7JH
