>From Merri AB0MV:
This contest was a blast! This was our third contest as a team and hopefully 
the start of many more.  We had a lot of FUN including when Dan worked a weak 
Vietnam station.  A sudden loud signal came on fequency.  Dan assumed it was 
another station trying to hone in on the rare DX.  Dan got exasperated and said 
"I'm trying to work the 3W!" several times to discourage the interference only 
to hear the loud signal yell "I AM the 3W!!!!!" 

>From Dan NØHF:
The high bands were the best I've seen in a while, 20m was open all
night Saturday with propagation to the entire globe at times.  Many
DX stations said "great signal", Keep in mind we were low power
with a roof-mounted C3SS yagi.  This year I focused on the mult. station
and it really helped our score.  Hosting this contest was a lot of fun,
Glenn and Merri are great guests and each contest we improve
our technique.  Not many Multi-op efforts here in Boulder county,
glad to be one of the few.
