Comments:

Good activity and pretty good condx. Tons of EU stations, but only mediocre
representation from elsewhere.

The EU ops seem to really like abbreviated numbers for exchanges. I found it
confusing at times since they'd be mixed in with regular numbers and I had
to ask for more than average resends. It didn't seem to speed things up to
make it worthwhile. In QRM/QSB/QRN etc., it can be difficult to pull out
TNA from ATN and convert it to real numbers at 35 WPM!!! IMHO.

My original goal for a Holiday weekend was to make 1000 Q's, but we got home
early and I was able to get on for an extra hour.
