Comments:

Wonderful time for the contest this year.
Enhanced activity on the sun on the lead up was a big thing for us.
Haven't seen the numbers like they were for many years.

Set everything up needed in the week leading up to the contest.
Got good weather all the way through, which has been unusual really since moving
to England.

Went with a 2 Radio approach and did a lot of cqing while hunting mults on 2nd
radio.
Being assisted this year let me see where to be and which way to be pointing,
for any out of the ordinary openings.
Pile-ups for the mults i was hunting were large nearly every time i went to
them, so left a lot of mults on the table that couldnt be worked.
10m didnt produce much, both days just opened really to South EU sporadically
and some of AF.
40m was not great at the start, only really improved later on in the first day.

i operated for 36 hours from the start, with only toilet breaks.
my body was broken by the time i called it quits, i really need to work on my
endurance for these in the future.

Setup here
FT1000MP x2 
160m - Vertical , Loop , Dipole
80m - 4 Square , Loop
40m - 2 Ele @100' , Loop, Dipole
20/15/10 - TH6 @80' , Hexbeam (for 2nd rig)

All in all good fun, great propagation, lots of great ops

Thanks for all the Q's and see you again for the major contest season next
year.

73, Scott
