Comments:

That was entertaining!  Only worked a few hours the first night. Band did not
seem good for working DX.  When the USA rate slowed down, I hit the sack.

Made a few QSOs at sunrise on Sat morning, but band still did not sound good.

Got back on Sat night around 0015z and things sounded much better.  The big gun
Europeans were much louder. Had better than expected rate with some DX thrown in
so kept operating.  Ended up making 700 contacts over the next 8 hours.

Was watching the online scoreboard and that kept me motivated to keep pushing. 
Especially as those 10 point QSOs accelerated the score.

Band was amazingly quiet both nights.  Worked a lot of very very weak Europeans.
 Fun!

Never heard SD, NE, KH6 or KL7.  Missed a number of VE provinces as well.  OA4DX
was loud, but CQed in my face.  That was the best DX heard and missed. 4X2M was
the "best" DX worked.
