Comments:

Wow ... that was fun!  Ice storms just prior to the contest weekend had all the
antennas coated with almost a quarter inch of ice.  Thankfully two days before
the weekend, the sun came out and the temps rose above the freezing mark, so the
VSWR readings were normal once again.  Quite good conditions allowed DXCC to be
attained over the weekend ... not easy with low power unassisted ... thanks for
pulling my signals through.  

What a great weekend for a contest!  Of course, almost any contest weekend is
great, but especially with this weekend as a snow storm developed dumping over
6" (15cm) of the lovely white stuff here in northwestern Illinois, so no
reason to venture outdoors.  It did cause for some snow static however.  

Again, thanks for all the QSO's!  I even put my 80 M inverted "L" on
160 with about 15 W to get 3 mults I wouldn't have had ... next year I hope to
have a more respectable sky hook for Top Band.
