I did hear some VE4's being either worked or spotted (VE4JBB for one)
but never heard anyone I could work.

Comments:

My first Commonwealth Contest and it was a challenge with antenna and power
limitations. The Restricted category in this event is very much appreciated!
High points were working 3D2EU and a large number of HQ stations. I was also
thrilled by having VY1KX come to me while I was CQing just before I closed down.
Working VK6LW on 40, just after his sunrise, was also nice. I was a bit
surprised at the number of VE3 stations operating and dismayed at the fact that
contest rules dictate I cannot work them. All in all an interesting event and
I'll be back next year with a tri-band beam that will allow me to work the many
UK & CD stations I could hear but was not able to contact.
