Comments:

I only had Sunday to operate. Almost didn't make it. Woke up feeling sick,
overslept three hours. Waited a while and I felt better. Didn't want to set
up
10 bands + antennas because I was much shorter on time than I'd planned. So
I
decided that three bands (144/222/432) was better than no contest at all,
and
off I went to my favorite hill.

Conditions were not bad, maybe a little better than average, but very few
people were pointing their beams at me. Heard a lot of stations I didn't
work.
I still had fun. And no frostbite! :-)
