Comments:

Thanks to Mel (KC0P/R) and Carol (N0HZO/R) for the majority of my QSOs. I really
miss the past high activity levels from the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. Overall,
a fun contest and I was still able to get some stuff done around the house. My
902/1296 systems were working great! Days leading up to the contest we had
excellent tropo conditions. I was able to work W0LGQ EN21 up through 1296 with
S9 signals and worked down to MO, OK, and KS.  Come contest time, we had a
storm/rain front roll through and destroyed it! So close to having a banger! I
could only work W0LGQ on 222 FT8 and he was weak.

Best DX was:
222: W0LGQ EN21 @ 327 miles (FT8)
432: VE4MA EN19 @ 438 miles (Q65)
902: K2DRH EN41 @ 221 miles (CW)
1296: K2DRH EN41 @ 221 miles (CW)

Thanks to the following stations for getting on and working me!
