This was probably my best year for DX contest performance, with my third top ten finish and and all-time high score in the CQWW Phone contest and great performances in the ARRL DX Phone, the CQWW CW, and the PA QSO Party. Alas, it was the last year for great performances from K3PP, as job pressures took over and destroyed by radio life. It wasn't until 2007, when I re-emerged with a few, albeit limited contest performances. 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2006 were almost total droughts. Sigh!
