You either love them or you hate them. I am in the second category.

As a QRPer this is certainly the one event of the contest year to give 
a very wide berth to:

No QRP section
Not even worth entering unless you go through the QTC palaver
Conditions yuk. 
95% of the stations clogging up the bands I'm not allowed to work. 
The other 5% I have to wait till they have finished sending their silly 
QTCs before I can call.

You can understand why the non-contesters get so upset about the bands 
being taken over at the weekends.

Glad it is over for another year.
