100 W into dipoles up 25'; keyed manually with an iambic paddle.
Good conditions in the first few hours, particularly on 40 and 80. The
Saturday morning (local; 1430z) opening on 10 m to EU didn't really materialize
for me, but 15 was open and put QSOs in the log. Saturday evening (0100z-0600z)
was pretty slow, with very few DX heard and even fewer who heard me. Lots of
auroral reflections and flutter on the stations I heard. No aurora seen,
though. Went to bed earlier than expected because of the slow conditions.
Sunday morning (1300z) was better, with a few contacts on 80 m right away, and
not long after 10 m opened to EU. Stations were stretched all the way up to
[past?] 28.133. I started running, and quickly had a deep pileup. It was fun
while it lasted, but I think conditions shifted a bit and it closed for a
while, reopened, and not long after I had to go QRT for non-radio obligations.
I added a few all-time new ones, and definitely filled in some band slots. See
you on the air in two weeks for the ARRL DX SSB!
