Comments:

I had 26 fewer QSO's than my personal best last year, but thanks to better
condix and antenna on 20, I beat last year's score by 15,000 points.

I put up a sloping 80 meter OCF Windom the day before the contest, which
is never a good idea.  I thought it would perform well on 80, and it did not,
and that cost me some points.  I had to take some time off to put up my 80m
sloping dipole in its place for the second night.

On the other hand, the Windom is a real performer on 20. The opening into
Europe
on Saturday morning was fantastic!  I don't think I have ever worked this
many Europeans during a contest.

I still am trying to break the 500 QSO barrier for this contest, and I just
couldn't make it.  I worked an all time new one on Saturday morning - 9M2 W
Malaysia.  Worked many other new ones for RTTY: PA, GW, YL, OE, OK, OM and HK.
I tried and tried to get a Greek station, and they just did not hear me.
Never heard the rare ones: Monaco, Andorra, & San Marino.  Maybe I would have
found them if I was assisted?
