Comments:
This felt more like Sweepstakes than usual.  First time I achieved a WAS in 
the RTTY Roundup.  Very little DX outside the north/south paths, although I 
did work a few Eu stations.  It was very nice to have more than 12 hours of 
solid rates.

Conditions and participation on 40 was very good.  Day two was a 
disappointment as I only increased my Q count by about 1/3 compared to the 
first day.  Thought I might even hit a 1,000 Qs, but came up a little 
short... should have gotten up a little earlier and ground it out on the 
low bands some more.

Thanks to all those who dropped by, nice to work new and old familiar 
calls.  If work doesn't get too much in the way, I will see you in the next 
one.

Hope everyone had a great holiday season!
73, Bart - VE5CPU
