I second your sentiments Eddy! One of my favorite contests. Very "fair" across the board. I was hoping for a bigger turnout from the "locals" in Eastern VE with wires,(competing for the local plaque) but everyone was pooped from the RAC contest, so there was only a small turnout.
Reading some of the comments here, and on "3830" I recognized some QRPers, so it does my heart good that I worked some, just using the inverted L. If there was anyone that I missed, I would be curious to find out who.

While I hardly set the 160-meter world up on its ear with my meagre effort here, I certainly enjoyed the time that I spent on the air, & was pleased to hand-out FN03 to any & all comers. It was especially gratifying for me, personally, to be able to dig-out some of the weaker stations out of the noise that I did---I suspect that there were more than a few QRP contestants in this year's fray, compared to other years...! ~73~ de Eddy VE3CUI - VE3XZ _______________________________________________ UR RST IS ... ... ..9 QSB QSB - hw?
