Win-Test says I had 6.5 hours off but apart from two breaks of 20 
minutes or so I was at the rig for the whole time. Very enjoyable, you 
have to keep thinking, moving, listening though when the MUF drops and 
the VEs go weak and watery on 40m it can get to be hard work.

I thought 15 was going to open to VK on Sunday morning, VK2AYD and VK4TT 
were loud, as well of course as the VK6s, but then it fizzled out again. 
I made 60 QSOs more than last year so the publicity and team event seem 
to have had the desired effect, and propagation-wise things can only get 
better!
