    Final Score = 781485 points.

I originally planned to do a 20m effort this year.  But I've had continuous 
line noise which has been quite high on 160 through 20m.  Fortunately it's 
not too bad on 15m so that's where I ended up.  (The power company came out 
and hooked their receivers to my antennas and think they found the 
offending power line insulators.  Hopefully a line crew will get out here 
to effect repairs before the season ends).  A strong cold-front came 
through though yielding some unexpected rain and snow static along with 
some high winds, adding to the challenge.

15m was in much better condition than I was expecting.  I missed zones 12 
and 23, and should have hunted down a few more country multiplers.  I'm 
pretty happy with my QSO total, however, from my central NY location. 
 Nothing broke and no one blatantly tried to take my frequency.  (I had 
this same positive experience in SS, which certainly makes the event more 
fun).  Surprises included working some Asia long path (to the SW) very late 
Friday night.

Looking forward to the ARRL DX.

73,
Brian N2MF
