Here's my results for the Sweepstakes.  As always, I enjoyed myself
immensely.

I've been a CW SS fanatic since 1968, when I managed to make 27 QSOs using a
Knight-Kit T-60 transmitter with 3 crystals in the 15m Novice band, only to
be edged out by my cross-town rival who managed, a then unimaginable, 47
QSOs!


   Band  Contacts     Mults     Score
      ----  --------     -----     -----
       3.5       108         8      1728
         7       140         6      1680
        14       115        21      4830
        21       127        26      6604
        28        69        18      2484
     Total       559        79     88322


I used the trusty TS-570D with my "invisible" 80m dipole.

Only missed NL for the sweep.  I heard VO1MP once as we were both doing the
S&P thing on 15m, but I couldn't catch his attention.  Oh well.

I improved over last year's effort of 551 QSOs with 77 multipliers, so I
guess that was good.

I hope everyone else did well, but most importantly - enjoyed themselves.
