Comments:

Great contest from start to finish. 
After many years, I started on 15m and stayed on till late at night, then 20m
till it diminished and then to 40. 
I had received permission to setup at a nearby hilltop location on Sunday
afternoon. So Setup homebrewed Hexbeam and EFHW for 40 on terrace of dormitory
building on the hilltop. By 11UTC, I was done with antenna work. Then it took 45
minutes or so with a break to arrange room and setup station. As I had operated
from the same site for IARU as AT1HQ last month, I was familiar with conditions
there. So my 12 hrs operation with couple of hours break was great joy. with
100W, I must have been strong at W land, many stations tried to chime in during
EU pileup. I had first couple of hours on each band with 90Q/Hr+ rate. QTC was
great fun as many EU stations asking for it. I tried to compared hexbeam and
EFHW on many occasions. Always hexbeam showed upper hand. I could have simply
erected a vertical for 40m as I did not hear many stations on inverted L shaped
EFHW. At one time, I thought to cross 500 Qs, but it was drag towards the end,
closing short by 6 Qs :(.

Really enjoyed this contest as many on the other side!.
