Comments:

I was suprised to find that some of the big stations from last year were absent
this time around. As others have commented, I was also disturbed by some of the
horrible signals on the band. A few BIG signals out of the Caribbean and the
Central US were splattering all over the place!  

In general, it appears there were less Mults to be found this year. Seemed like
contacts in general were harder to come by. 

Conditions from the East Coast were as follows: 

Friday Eve: Band held till 10pm EST
Sat: Daytime conditions were ok but not great, Eve conditions were lousy and
the band was dead by 9pm
Sun: Daytime conditions were average, actually grabbed a VU contact,
backscatter (close-in states) conditions afforded the ability to achieve WAS
this year, Eve conditions were poor, heard a brief opening to the S.Pacific,
and the band was dead by 23:30Z

Too bad the contest wasn't last weekend, conditions were much better!
