Thanks to all concerned in running the contest and to
everyone for the Q's.
Condx were pretty good all round apart from 80M which was
very noisy.
I did a limited SO2R entry as I am waiting for some new
equipment b4 it gets the full treatment. Needs must I'm
afraid, so if you can't beat 'em join 'em. 
Best hour was 79.
Age sent was 64. Mental age is 18.

I said last year that I wasn't going to do any more full 48
hour contests and I managed to stick to that by just doing
39 hours. Looking at the score submissions I didn't see any
single ops doing the full 48 hours so maybe we all feel the 
same way or are just getting older and wiser. Perhaps a better 
contest format would be to pick 36 or 40 hours from the 48 on 
offer.
Talking of older, it was quite depressing to see the ages of
the participants. Amateur radio as we now know it could be 
history in another 30 years.

Gripes.
Most of the usual ones were there, but other submitters have
covered them all.

73 Steve, and hope to cu in the next one.
