Not sufficient time to do the full 12 hours but managed 8. Anyway first time
in this one so I had no idea what to expect. 

Started almost at the get-go just S&P and found the only 3 q's I was going
to have on 10! Did about 5 hours on and off until 2030. Got up in the
morning to finish off with the grey-line stuff and LP VK/ZL. The last 2
hours were dire. Oh for a 40M antenna!

Equipment - TenTec Orion I, Acom amplifier, C31XR at 120 foot, 80m dipole at
120 foot, 40m Dipole at 30 foot! N1MM with 2 monitors(Used the second to
keep an eye on the F1 qualifying).

I doubt I shall do this again at it appears to be more of a DX chasers party
than a contest but I can understand its attraction, as long as we keep the
21/28 events as well, which I personally find more fun, every one to their
own.
