Oh my, that was a lot of fun. With 10M and 15M wide open both days, 20M fell to
lonely third place on the "must work" list. Good thing, as 20M wasn't
particularly good on the short or long hauls this weekend.
80M was once again forgotten by many, while 40M was good domestically but fewer
than usual DX stations heard or worked.
But wow! How about that 10M? Every time I was on 20M or 15M, I kept wondering
what I was missing on the "new" 10M. Great fun.
Ran low power, thinking the good conditions would make for plenty of action
without the amp. Managed to blow past all previous outing, including three
straight HP efforts in 2006 to 2009. Can only image the rates I'd have enjoyed
with the amp running.

Quit with an hour remaining as T32C showed up on 10M FM. Tried to work them for
two hours but no joy. Maybe later in the week.
Now to rest for a couple of weeks in prep for CQWW SSB. A little Stew Perry
warmup next weekend is just the ticket for that.
Thanks for the contacts.
