Comments:

This was a lot of fun, as usual. 20 started slow, but picked up as everyone
realized the contest was in progress. 40 was the money band for me and it was
good to hear so many familiar calls, both in and out of state. 80 was OK, but I
did not hear as much activity as I expected. I did this one with no spotting
assistance, I found that my DSL modem basically wipes out 80 meters and can
also be heard on 40. I have to look into that (thanks AT&T). The mobiles
and portables really helped the multiplier total, although I had 5 less
counties than last year (75). Never did hear AK, HI, OR, UT or RI. Lot's of
Canadian activity, though, also helping the mult total. Thanks to all. See you
next time.

P.S. Thanks to WIARC for the plaques I received for last year’s ILQP. They arrived the day before the contest and were already hanging in the shack to bring me luck for this year!
