SYNOPSIS
     With the solar flux inching towards 300, most Summary Sheets reported good conditions with many enjoying QSOs on 15M with 20M workable well after sundown.  The number of Million Point Zombie attests to the good band conditions and quite a few Zombies spending many hours on the air working others and some passing out Bonus Points.  There were plenty of CQ BOO calls to be heard all day and night.
     We also had several DX stations participate this year from UK and EU to Japan.  A long haul across both ponds, but they did manage a few QSOs for a heroic effort. Thanks for participating.
     As usual, many Summary Sheets indicated this was their first CW contacts ever or in many years, or first CW contest ever, and many tried QRP for the first time and found it a blast.  They found the goofiness and fun of the Zombie Shuffle to be the right combination to try some QSOs.
     By far the most dominant comments on the Summary Sheets is the fun of copying those strange and ghoulish names on the air ... wondering what name was coming next.  The results below lists the names each Zombie used on the air.  Definitely a Zombie Shuffle exclusive feature.
    Scores are largely based on serendipity of the Zombie numbers and bonus stations worked for a wild spread in scores. Unfortunately, there's no way to measure the fun we all had but it was up there.  Still one of the most fun and unique QRP events of the year.  CU next year.
