Comments:

First serious SOAB since 2002, it was great to be back though I think I 
prefer it when there are some sunspots! Sorry not to have found TZ5A on 
160, but I did work my first ever ZS on the band. Doubling the length of 
the beverage this year really paid off when working North America on 160.

It's clear from reading other's comments that W was workable on Sunday 
on 10m, but I missed it. That would have been the 500th mult!

Spent some of yesterday and all day today taking down the extra 
antennas, and I crunched the quad yesterday because I didn't check the 
block & tackle carefully before starting to lower it. Anyway it should 
be easy enough to repair.

Apart from G, GD was the only other British Isles country that I worked 
on all six bands!
