Finally a smooth 10m Contest! Last year's experience was crucial for a good
start. I did not worry about beam headings and CQ'ed away with the antenna
fixed south / south-east. It is interesting that conditions were a perfect
match to those in 2002, but I doubt this will repeat one more time.

One feature I had never tried before was a master DOK .bin file of past
entries on a separate notebook. Much like a Partial Check and kinda neat when
signals are weak!

The russian WSEM contest overlapped for one hour and caused a lot of confusion.
I can't remember any collisions in previous years, so obviously they have
changed the rules. Hope this will be fixed until next year.
