Comments:
QRT Saturday night (family funeral Sunday). Polar paths were affected by Aurora
and I never heard LA/OH/SM although I did work OZ7YY and RU1A. Mediterranean
countries definitely had an advantage! Missed DC, VO2, VE4, VE6, VY1, VY0 and
VE8. Never heard JA or KL7 Saturday morning. Had several pleasant surprises
call like NP4A, P3F, P40RH, PV8CW, S9SS, XQ6ET and 5B4AGC plus some of the rarer
Europeans. 4L2M was probably the best DX worked (after a great struggle)!
Heard OD5/OK1MU just before his sunrise Saturday but he never even gave me a
"..--..".
Thanks to all and bring on the Solar minima in 2006!
73, Bill W4ZV
P.S. Special thanks to CQ for listening to our inputs about the time limit!
