Comments:

Low bands were pretty quiet, but haven't worked 3 of available mults on 160: ND,
MB, SK. Anyway thanks to KD4POJ and VE4YU for moving. 
By the mid-contest mark I have had 3924 Q's and 311 multiplier, but next day
rate became too low and lack of a second radio couldn't allow me to improve it.


Congratulations to Yuri 6Y2T (VE3DZ) for his big score. 
Thanks to John ZF2AM (K6AM) for competition.

Here are some photos I've taken during this journey:
