An Aurora came up during the day on Saturday with a good visual display on
Saturday evening.  I had some trouble on 20, more on 40 and 80 /160 were
essentially useless here.  To top it off I had a bad flu to contend with so
I worked only about 300-400 Q's.

Sunday morning was a new day... Wow, did things turn around for me.  I
gradually felt better, the bands improved and I worked about 800 more Q's.

I ended up with about 300 less Q's than my best for SS, but I am sure the
1100 who made the log are happy I was there.

There were 5 VY1's reported to me as having been on.  Soon, VY1 will be as
easy to find as SCV.

NOTE!  I worked two other VY1's for my first ever DOUBLE sweep!
