With my 3rd hand TS-520 and a G5RV Junior wrapped around my apartment walls, I got a nice certificate for first place in class and section for last year. 

This year it took only 2 hours to match my total from that winning effort, and I ended up with 6 times as many QSOs with the same setup.  What a difference sun spots make.

I don't go into a cotest for the glory, just for the fun, but the certificate looks nice, we'll see if if my luck holds up.
