Comments:

Five ops in iron-man mode:
10m; K0UK, N6RO
15M; N6BV
20m; K3EST 
40m; N6WM
80m; N6RO, K0UK
160m; N6RO, K0UK

Four stations: dedicated 40/20/15 stations and an SO2R station for 10/80/160. 

Results down from last year, mainly due to poor 10m condx.  Could not run EU,
and all EU heard were skew-path both days on 10.  Like last year 80 and 160m
had high absorption: only 4 EU on 80m; no EU, AF, ASIA, OC (exc. KH6) on 160.

Had some hardware problems at the start of the contest, mostly bad coax jumpers
(Pl259s). Special thanks to N6WM, who climbed the 10m tower to replace a jumper
to restore the yagi stack.  (Otherwise, it would have been a TH6 on 10m.) Chris
then proceeded to set a new 40m station record in mults; EU and JA were good on
that band.

Tnx for the Qs, CU in WPX SSB
