Comments:

This was fun!  I'm pleased with the score for QRP from the "black
hole", considering my modest antennas. The bands were in pretty good shape
and it was nice to have both 10 and 15 open. Definitely a positive sign for the
future! 

10 was especially productive on Saturday, although I never heard continental
Europe. I was able to pick up ZL, VK, KH6, and KL7, plus D4 on 10, in addition
to the usual SA and Caribbean stations.  

I got CQd in my face on 80 and 40 quite often.  I consider it a positive sign
when the DX comes back with "???".  I figure I'm at least at noise
level!  Special thanks to 9A1TT and VK1A who were very persistent and hung with
me to complete our QSOs on 40! I did score a few 80 meter QSOs into EU, but
never heard Japan.  

As always I appreciate the skills and patience of the DX ops as they pull my
signal out of the QRM.  

73,
