Comments:

Fun contest!   Propagation wasn't great but the QTC exchanges keep it
interesting and challenging.   Lowband propagation seemed much better on
Friday night than Saturday night.   K4GMH's comments about QTC strategy are
very true...just wish I had read them before the contest!   I didn't get on
the air Sunday morning and by the afternoon propagation to EU was less than
ideal.  A few South American stations were willing to exchange on Sunday
afternoon but not enough.  I got stuck with lots of QTCs...and some valuable
lessons for next year...
