     Totals    764     2110     2.76    103     352  =>  960,050


Equipment:  Icom IC-756, Ameritron AL1200, CT 9.37
Antennas:  G5RV at 35', Cushcraft R7 vertical

Club Affiliation: Yankee Clipper Contest Club


I operated from 0130Z to 0430Z then again from 1030 to 1900Z Saturday, and
Sunday from about 12Z to the end.  CT says I only operated 20 hours.

I operated from KC1XX M/S from around 00Z to 12Z on Sunday morning so the
good operators could get some rest.

The last two hours were a multplier frenzy, as I had run only 100W Friday
night so had some catching up to do on 40 and 20.  Never got any runs going
(SSB with puny antennas is hard), though once on 10M I had two CTs followed
by two IKs call me, that was it!  It was nice to see the band open again.

The highlight for me was working 3 new countries (V8, XX9 and 4U1UN) to
bring my "restart" DXCC total up to 276 since moving 13 months ago.

Congratulations to K3LR and his crew for a SUPER job.  How does it feel to
have everyone gunning for YOU now?!?!
