Comments:
First ever attempt at SS, looks like fun ! Bit of a challenge. Tried to schedule
 activity to ensure that any who might have wanted NL could have it,
  because of first time as section mult did lot of S&P as well as CQing.
  Was able to work  just about all I heard in S&P except VY1JA and Couldn't
work  KH6 on 20 so had to wait until 40 meters next morning, Go figure!! 
Undoubtedly
 longest path for any Sweepstake QSO. 

  Spent some time looking for a sweep once I got the fever, mebbe next year.
  Heard a few other VO stns working the contest also, so we were there  !!.
