Thanks for the complement. For information Steve GW4ALG also using a 
K2 and G5RV managed 340,000 points and G0WAT 263,872 with a vertical 
(but not a K2). So it can be done.  Next year I guess I shall have to 
give up Church on Sunday and not bother with sleeping....

By the way, my country score with the K2 since Easter is now on 160 
with exactly the same set up!

A great contest!
