Here's my results.  I heard KG4W in there a lot.  Every time we went head to head calling a station he beat me out!  Did anyone else in the club play in this one?  Do you care to share your results?

RIG: Ten Tec Omni VII, Ameritron ALS-600 500W 
ANTENNA: 176' center fed @ 60' 

The conditions were very good on the lower bands.  The higher bands except for
10m showed signs of improvement with JA stations coming through stronger than
I've heard them in years.  I don't have a big enough antenna to hear much on 10
M under the present conditions.  At least I didn't get completely skunked on 10!
I got on 15 too late just as the EU stations started to fade out. 

CU in the next contest,
