The bands were sure in good shape Friday.  Now quite a good for Saturday. 
The results were 720 QSO's, 73 Sections, and 6 Countries.  That is way my 
best for this contest.

A real treat was Saturday evening when nearly back to back to back I worked 
the Famous Oklahoma Contest/DX stations, W7FG, K5TT, and K5KA.  I needed ear 
transplants after they blew me away after listening to those puny 160M QRP 
stations.

I have not run Ken's (K5KA) analyzing program on my log yet, but it seemed 
like I worked a lot of Oklahoma stations.  To those, many thanks.

For those needing a small space 160 meter receiving antenna, I built a K9AY 
and it really works great.  Much better than I expected.

Good luck and take care.
