Comments:

The contest conditions did not meet initial expectations, 6m CW was thought to
be the workhorse of the contest, while 2m and 70cm were to be used to help with
multipliers.  The station was setup to meet those expectations, however I was
able to make more QSOs on 70cm than on 6m.  Digital modes were not used in the
contest.

The total number of CW QSOs was 3.  As a CW op I missed running more QSOs and
mults on 6m - I'm not sure if the low number of CW QSOs is due to a local
preference for voice, regional ham density, propagation, or another factor.

The propagation to the east on 2m was surprising and welcomed.  Thanks to the
rover stations who made the contest interesting and ops who helped  me out, both
heavily added to the store 

Many thanks for Richard, K5NA and Susan, K5DU for allowing me the use of their
station.
