Comments:
Grueling but big fun! The aftermath of the big CME was amazingly quiet
conditions on 40 and 80m, which allowed almost everyone to hear my tiny
signal.
Crowding on 20 and 40 was more of a problem than anything else.
I didn't get quite the start I wanted - conditions were still a bit under the
influence of the recent solar flares - but things went just OK. While Saturday
night was not great, Sunday AM saw the lowest QRN levels I've experienced in a
long time. Still, only heard KL7RA on Saturday afternoon and then never again,
and never heard KH6 or the Northern provinces at all.
I hope to put you all in the log in the SSB version, and good reception to all
until then. 73 de kt8k - Tim
