First entry in CW leg, only entered SSB before.  Thanks to all who were
patient with my limited copying powers.  All I can say is, they were better
at the end than at the start.  There's nothing like 48 hrs of real contest
to train your CW skills - beats all the simulators ever invented!

Conditions were excellent, though the gotaways were still a DXers dream!
(3W7, C7K, YB, SV9, 9M2 etc)  Highlight was being called by 9M6AAC at a
genuine 599 for a double mult and a new alltime country.

Target was DXCC and 1000Qs - touch and go to the last hour, but got there
in the end.

Qs    1020
QSO pts   1685
DX   102
Z   27

Raw score 217,365

Thanks CQ for sponsoring the most exciting event of the year.
