A 'just for fun' entry as I only had a few hours each day:

                  160m  80m  40m  20m  15m  10m  Total
Valid QSOs:    0    62      81    74     63     20   300
         Mults:    0    40      51    48     41     21   201
        Points:    0    86    139  186    133     32   576

Ten-Tec Jupiter 538, FL2100Z, Vertical Delta Loop, SD Logger

Elected to enter as SO-assisted as I thought the chance of a few juicy ones
was more important than which list I appeared near the bottom of. Only S&P,
trawling up & down the band. 10 metres was disappointing, even allowing for
a single element wire aerial; 3X5A was at one point the only signal audible
on the band on Sunday. No 160m aerial at the moment, so lost some
easy mults. there. 80m was a last hour dash. Good signals from S. America
and Africa. Very poor to US West coast and Oceania. Most fun band was 15m;
somehow more civilised than 20m & 40m!
