Comments:

Great to have the opportunity to compete from Aruba once again.  Not sure if the
P44 prefix is a plus or minus but it flows nicely when sent by hand.

Conditions were 'odd' in northern SA but seemed consistent with what my many
friends south of the equator experienced.  Fast QSB was a constant issue leading
to an exaggerated number of NR repeat requests.  Late afternoon EU on 15M and
even spotlight EU on ten meters were highlights of the weekend.  Opted to stay
on 40M for the double points the first night so missed all of the over the pole
fun on 20.  It's all about points per Q.   WPX is won or lost on 40 and 80.

Thanks again to my wonderful Aruban hosts.  I'll be back for CQWW PH and CW in
the fall.

73, John W2GD
