What I did with my weekend...I saw "Fred Claus"; went to a Cub Scout Meeting,
attended my XYLs XMAS party, went to church to pray for sunspots, ate at Taco
Bell, and...oh, operated a bit of 10 meters. I figured I try QRP rather than
low power, which pretty much knocked out my chances of bagging any mults via
scatter. However, with good N-S paths, I managed to work a pile of 8's, 9's,
and 0's, with some PA, KY, AZ, TX, and CA mixed in. Good e-skip with S9 +
sigs.

Worked HD2N and 6Y1V plus 30 states and VE3. Missed working NJ by a hair - we
couldn't complete the exchange. No WA or OR, and only MA/CT in W1 land. All the
hams you speak of in Florida were just too close when I was on, as I heard all
of W4 but only managed to bag KY, NC, and VA.

Had fun - maybe next year I'll try to be a bit more serious.
