Comments:

I had great hopes that my new mulitband dipole as in inverted vee with
apex at 55 feet in my palm tree would be a huge improvement over dipoles
at 20 feet.  To make a long story short, the multiband dipole did not work
well, especially on 80.

Thankfully, I had a spare 40 meter dipole that I put in place of the 
multiband dipole.  I had good results with it.  Quite a thrill to work
the OH0 via gray line at sunrise this morning on 40.  Thats a first for me.

Several new countries for me - Mali, Kenya and Tokelau.  Too many new
band countries to list.  Missed the Libya group. 

Missed a lot of countries that I worked in SSB contest.  Missed FY and
VK especially. And where are the HL's?

I think I'll pass on the 160 contest next weekend, and concetrate on
getting a pvc dipole up the palm tree for the 10m contest.
