Comments:
Was amazed and delighted to find 15m open to most of the US for almost 3 hours.
20 was as usual the money band and 40 disappointed going long and fluttery by
0200Z. As others have reported, 80 and 160 played very well to all states. I
should have taken my break in early evening to save the last 2 hours for more 80
and 160. Got sucked into too much S&P to find mults and lost rate. Installed
a 3 element HiZ 160-80-40 receiving antenna array last weekend hoping it would
help rx, especially on 40m in this contest. But alas my 160m fullwave H-Loop was
more effective with an omni pattern and better SNR.
