I think there was less noise but less stations the second night, though
last year vintage seemed better regarding propagation.

Mult. stations heard but missed: N5IA in NM (1st night), VP2EJ (both
nights),
JX7DFA, GI3OQR, 6D2X (all 2nd night).
The EU cluster spots reviewed after the contest said I missed 10 more DX,
including 2 (normally) easy ones.
