I really didn't know what to expect this year. My usual contest
station, K5OJI (Texas Instruments ARC), is moving across the street and
won't be ready until early next year. So, it was a Single Op, Low
Power, Simple Antenna effort from home.

To say that I am pleasantly suprised is an understatement. I missed KL7
and VE1. No mug for me this year. First one that I've missed since
they were offered in '91.
Thanks to everyone for all the q's and fun. I had a blast!!!!
