Heard VE2AWR and ZF2NT on 40 - only once and out of sync.  Missed
MD as well.  I made two band changes and only used one radio.  The
strategy was focused on obtaining the highest QSO total possible.
I essentially operated for 90 minutes on 20, then 90 minutes on 
40 and then the last hour on 80.  

Was trying out a new antenna on 80 meters and it seemed to work very
well.  It is a 3 element parasitic array with a wire reflector and 
director stung from the loaded tower.  

Congrats to the guys with bigger mults and scores.
