Going for European Record but landing at World Record - on business terms
the
plan sucks! 

Yes, the 40M was to be hot and therefore I had set out to break the EU 40M
record....but little did I know that I would be so badly sandwiched above
and
below on that packed band open in all directions at the same time -
including
the whole EU yelling across the big water. But when I was approaching the
European mark on Sunday morning, it looked possible even to make a World
Record
and put KH7XS to sell his house. That kept me running like mad until the
final
bell.

While expressing my happiness of becoming the ARRL DX Contest World Record
holder from European soil, I would like to thank all my QSO partners for
sharing my mission with their slick repeats and patience on a crowded band. 
It was your QSOs that made this a fun operating experience that only working
Yankees - not to forget VEs - can provide as it has been for last 50 years 
to me. Especially, it was fun to catch those multitudes of Generals just 
below 7200!

Let me salute you all in my 50th year of contesting and thank Juha, OH8NC of
Radio Arcala for spending a memorable week with me on the
Azores....discussing
the strange case of Tax Director in the city of Mantsala and more...and
Jose,
CU2CE and Francisco, CU2DX for their helping hand and friendship.

This completes my third week in a row on the Azores - including a contest
each
weekend. Enough of contesting for a while! Or maybe not - see you in WPX!

Martti, OH2BH/CU2KG @ CR2X
