Comments:
I had a family commitment Sunday afternoon, so I was adjusting my sleep times so
I would not be too burned out Sunday afternoon. On Saturday night, something
bad happened to 160 - the band went quiet - TOO quiet. I thought my antenna
fell down, but the SWR was fine. Tuning around, I heard a few W's, and the few
DX stations that were there were unreadable. Waited for about 1/2 hour, then
went to bed.
Woke up early Sunday, and the low bands were in great shape. Went to 20, and
it was already in great shape - earlier than expected, so I tried 15. Managed
a great run into Europe that lasted for hours until someone opened up close by.
Splatter was bad, the run was done, so I went to 10. WOW - it was great!!
Hated to stop, but at 1730Z had to leave :-( It was great while it lasted.
Thanks for the QSO's, and hope to see everyone again in the next one!
Tom - VE3CX
