I've been down with a bad cold, and hadn't slept more than 
three hours a night all week. I certainly wasn't planning to 
operate this one, other than to work a new country if heard. As 
usual, I got caught up in it after starting. 

Most operation was first night.  Pounced a lot more than I 
normally do. Noise got progressively worse as the night went 
on. No JAs heard. Missed NE and ND (first time I've missed 
those two in a VERY long time). 

I slept all day Saturday (body finally demanded it!) Snowstorm 
and attendant snow static hit about 0000Z Saturday, and 
radar showed it was going to continue most all night. I ran 
for another hour or so, and then shut down for the night.

A few more QSOs Sunday morning, but still no JA or additonal
Pacific multipliers.
