Just a part-time effort.  Now that the NE Patriots are in the NFL playoffs
every year, it kills Sunday for this contest.

This contest usually serves to kick-start my annual DXCC quest.  Now that CQ
sponsors a DX Marathon award, at least I can *do* something with all those
worked entities!

Missed ME, VT, OK(!), ID, NV and ND.  Missed the northern (VO1, VO2, VY0, VY2)
and Western (VE8, VY1) provinces.  Never heard KH6 or KL7.

Best runs were on 80m.  40m had signals almost continuously from 7030 to 7100.
15m was spotty into Europe Sunday morning, but managed to work a few.  Never
heard a peep on 10 meters.

Worked two new RTTY countries on 80m: EF8A and GI0KOW.

I hope to put in a more serious effort in the WPX contest in mid-February.

Thanks for all the activity and all the QSOs.
