For the second year in a row we had to shutdown for over 1/2 an hour
on Saturday night when thunderstorms moved past my QTH.  All the
electrical activity made the second night very noisy and cut down
activity a bit.  Many thanks to those that worked so hard in getting
their calls and reports through all the noise and QRM and into our
often inadequate ears.  My apologies to those we could not pick out.
My biggest thrill was working 20+ European stations in less than
20 minutes early Saturday morning.
