Wow!

Congrats to K2DM, K2PS, K3ZGA, K9IA, N0SMX, and any others I missed in The
Villages, for a great job under the circumstances.  Several of you clearly
outshined me with your performance.  I had other things going on so was
limited in my available time, but had a good time working 160 - 15.  The
only signal I heard on 10 was a very weak 2nd harmonic from a friend who
lives about 3 miles away.

My summary follows.

Comments:

Flex 6300, AL-80B, Classic 33 at 45 ft, 40 meter inverted vee and 80 meter
dipole at 50 ft, 160 meter inverted L at 60 ft.  Very pleased with the
performance of all antennas.  Casually worked the contest in between other
activities.  Did run on 40 for a few minutes, 23 contacts in 11 minutes at
0830Z Sunday morning. Worked K2DM's amplifier at VP2MSS on all bands except
10.  67 total countries. 80 meters yielded 5 contacts with Japan and 3 with
Hawaii. 
Next year I think it might be fun to try multi-single to see what we could
do in 48 hours.
