Comments:

I'm not a very skilled CW op, but I had a blast searching and pouncing, or more
accurately, clicking on the spots in the N1MM+ Available Mults and Q's window. 
For the 1st half of the contest I worked almost nothing but mults.  When there
weren't any left that were workable, I'd hit the band with the best propagation
(typically 15m) and either aim SE and pick off SA or else aim NW and harvest
JA's.

N1MM+ says less than 20 hours op time.  My daughter and grandtoddler were here
much of the weekend, so the radio had some competition for my attention.

Among those worked on 6 bands were TO4A, P44W, PJ2T, and V3T.  5 banders
included KP2M, KH6LC, and KL7SB.  Picked up one new DXCC band slot thanks to
3V8SF on 80m.

I continue to be a one armed op for a few months as I recover from shoulder
surgery.
