Comments:

I knew coming in that I wouldnt be able to do a full 48 hour effort.  This trip
was a last minute decision, and I took the redeye down on Thursday night.  I
didn't get to the station until about 5 hours before the start.  Luckily, John
K6AM was able to do most of the set up for me before he left for home a few days
before the contest.  All I had to do was set up the 2nd IC7610 and I was ready
to go.  Unfortunately I wasn't able to sleep much on the plane, and there wasn't
any additional time left for a nap prior to the contest.  All that being said, I
thought for sure I could make it through the first night.  It was not to be, as
only 9 hours in I was feeling ill with a really bad headache that wouldnt go
away.  I decided to lay down for a while but it didn't help.  I ended up taking
several breaks throughout the weekend just to keep my sanity.  

The good news is all the equipment worked great.  I was impressed with the
IC7610's.  They were very easy on the ears and I had no problem at all digging
out weak signals or pulling out calls in big pile ups.  The new RA6LBS gear also
worked flawlessly.  The station has really come a long way in a short time.  I
am very excited for the future.  

Congrats again to Tom 8P5A for the well deserved win.  I keep hoping that one of
these years 10m will cooperate from ZF, but being so close to the mainland has
its disadvantages.  It will probably be a few more years until that happens. 
This year 15m was a huge disappointment as well.  Only managed around 300 q's on
Saturday, and it didn't open until 18z on Sunday when the flood gates finally
opened.  

Best Q of the weekend was when VY0ERC moved me from 20 to 40 in the last 30
minutes of the contest.  He wasn't loud but I could hear him fine.  It was a
nice way to end the contest.

Thanks for all the Q's and QSY's.  

73,

Dan N6MJ
