Results of a small m/m effort from a single op type station.
Only 2 radios, but not serious enough to deal with 10 minute rule,
so went m/m.

All on 1 tower, only 15 on separate rotor. The 15 got caught
in the 80 wire during sunday's wind storm, which caused the
tic ring to slip. Was beaming Japan for a while on sunday
trying to work South America.
Ops, N2NT, KZ2S, W2GD, and a cameo appereance by N2NU whose station
was too damaged to deal with.
Best quote of the contest: I wish I could tell you fellas how
much power I'm running, but my husband's not home to read
the meters! VP2MBM.
Best effort:OD5NJ on 40 mtrs. Did not have split capability, so
he would spin his vfo up and listen for a while. Then he would
collect the calls, come back and give reports and ask you to wait
for 30 secs to confirm. Who said 40 ssb is no fun?
