Comments:

Had fun with a casual operation, lots of breaks, and there certainly were a lot
of stations to work.  If it wasn't for RTTY activity generated by a contest, the
mode would probably be as rare as a P5, however, nowhere near as common as FT8.

Decided to submit a single band 20M entry but I also played on 40M and 15M as
well... usually when I got tired of the wall-to-wall QRM on 20M or the band died
out.  Come on sunspots! ... we've got to spread out to adequately support that
many contesters.  

Favorite QSO was actually on 15M with V51WH in Namibia. It was pure happenstance
that we gave each other the very same serial number "901".  That late
in the contest, it felt like I hit a lottery number. What are the odds of that? 
Made me think of the Porsche 901 (aka 911), another "Classic" entry.

It was great to hear and work a bunch of fellow YCCC members. Each contest more
members seem to join the fray and it's a good prep for ARRL DX.

My other numbers were:
40M 389 Qs for 1608 pts with 186 WPX
15M 68 Qs for 147 pts with 33 WPX

Log Total: 1,042 Qs for 3137 pts with 559 WPX

73,
Rich N1IXF
