Comments:

Had trouble getting mentally into this one since I knew that Friday night was
unavailable with non-radio activities.  Had a little too much fun with the
"non-radio" stuff and thus couldn't stay awake to work what was
obviously a fantastic 20 meter band.

First day conditions were great, as many have noted.  Rain static was a big
issue here on Saturday afternoon.  Managed to work HA3NU on 10 meter Sporadic E
but then the rain QRN wiped out the band.

I had the skimmer feed coming in the entire contest, but I really don't know how
to use it so I don't think it was a big game changer.  

The QRN was really awful on 40 meters each evening -- especially to the east.  I
hardly even checked 80.
