I decided to have a try at the CW event on a SO  basis this year. Conditions 
did not seem as bad I has feared they might be, with some good openings on 
the HF bands, and mercifully low QRN levels on LF. Good activity levels 
meant the overall rate did not get too boring.

A very productive S&P session on 10 and 15 towards the end of Sunday evening 
produced a good crop of extra mults.

Still need to get this SO2R thing sorted !  It hurts my brain.
